Here is a pair of vintage hand-turned bowls. Two sizes, with carved grooves, and two stained accent bands. Beautiful woodgrains. Excellent condition and clean.
The larger bowl measures 3 inches high by 6 1/4 inches across the top. The smaller bowl measures 3 inches high by 5 3/4 inches across the top. No maker's marks. There are three contact points on the bottom where the bowls were attaches to the turning lathe.
No cracks, chips or stains. As with all art woodenware there are imperfections from manufacture such as; varied tones in the woodgrains, varied patterns in the woodgrains and variations in texture especially around knots.
No excessive imperfections from manufacture. The smaller bowl has a soft ridge line running from bottom to top on the exterior and a couple of minute dark knot spots on the interior. The larger bowl has a small rough spot on one of the exterior stained bands over a knot and a dark straight line leading away from a knot on the interior.
This beautiful hand-worked pair is clean, bright and ready for service.
