Pair of antique seed bowls, made in the 1700s. Available for purchase individually or as a set.
These ancient wooden bowls were once used for the storage of seeds (they would originally have had lids). They are well preserved, especially considering they are around 300 years old. Hand turned from a solid piece of wood they have fine decorative rings. The smaller bowl has two holes on either side, presumably for string to secure the lid. This set is a lovely example of Treenware and rustic farmhouse decor.
Condition:
In beautiful vintage condition, particularly given their age. There are some splits in the wood, adding to the character and charm of the bowls. The wood has developed a rich patina from years of use. There is some residue inside each bowl from previous use. Deep signs of age and wear.
Measurements:
As hand-made primitive pieces, each is slightly irregular.
Small bowl - approx 6cm tall x 14cm diameter = approx 2.5" x 5.5"
Medium bowl - approx 7cm tall x 16cm diameter = approx 2.75" x 6.5"
Many more wooden bowls of various sizes also available.
