Elm Dough Trough Hand Carved Elm Bowl - 19th Century
Hand crafted for a day to day purpose, now perfect as a decorative table display bowl.
The colour, grain and shape are so organic this becomes a timeless decorative piece for the home. Elm always has a charming attraction and the wood is so interesting.
Originally used a a dough trough bowl and would have been used for dough proving, gone are those days for most folks, now it has an endless decorative appeal around the home. For me a perfect fruit bowl.
Very nicely shaped by hand giving it a charming rustic look.
Period: 19th Century
