This large, lidded wooden bowl is a testament to the soul of craftsmanship. A Philippine tribal vessel from the mid-20th century, its form is a study in perfect, simple grace. Hand-carved from a single piece of dense wood, its powerful, rounded body and tight-fitting lid were designed to protect something precious. The unique carved handle on its side feels like a lock and a key, a testament to its purpose as a secure container. Its deep, rich patina and the subtle signs of a life well-lived tell a story of a long journey, likely used to hold ceremonial rice or precious goods.
This large wooden vessel is a magnificent and functional centerpiece. Its large size makes it a perfect storage solution for blankets, scarves, or small treasures in a living room. It can also be used as a striking centerpiece on a coffee or console table, its smooth, elegant form and rich patina adding a powerful layer of history to your space.
