Antique Wooden Bowls For Sale on 1stDibs

There is a range of antique wooden bowls for sale on 1stDibs. Each of these unique antique wooden bowls was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, hardwood and metal. Antique wooden bowls have long been popular, with older editions for sale from the 18th Century and newer versions made as recently as the 20th Century. Antique wooden bowls are generally popular furniture pieces, but Folk Art, Mid-Century Modern and Art Nouveau styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Many antique wooden bowls are appealing in their simplicity, but Munising Wood Products and Rajhastani produced popular antique wooden bowls that are worth a look.

How Much are Antique Wooden Bowls?

Prices for antique wooden bowls can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, antique wooden bowls begin at $75 and can go as high as $400,500, while the average can fetch as much as $791.

Finding the Right bowls-baskets for You

As decorative objects in your space, antique, new and vintage bowls and baskets make for a versatile addition to any corner of your living room, dining room or the console table in your foyer or entryway. Whether they’re positioned as a focal point for the family dining table or an accent on the shelving in your home office, or perhaps you’re just endeavoring to add minimalist ceramics throughout your home, an alluring art-glass centerpiece bowl or antique rustic fisherman’s basket is an easy way to elevate high-trafficked areas of your apartment or house.

Aside from the obvious functionality that a decorative bowl or basket brings to your kitchen, displaying such items behind the glass doors of a vintage storage cabinet or on your open kitchen shelving allows you to add a touch of personality and flair to the space, particularly if you’re accustomed to serving cocktails while you cook or if the kitchen is a common area for gathering and unpacking the events of the day.

As your bookcase is so much more than a place to, well, store books, adding a decorative bowl or basket — a mid-century modern work or an Art Nouveau–-era piece designed by French art-glass makers Daum — to the space where you keep your art monographs and coveted first editions can draw attention to your treasured library.

For the tranquil California coastal-style interiors you’ve worked so hard to create, fill a hand-carved wooden bowl on your console table with glass fishing floats or seashells, while a tall woven vessel by your front door can be populated with leafy green plants.

For anywhere and everywhere in your home, find a wide variety of antique or modern decorative baskets and bowls on 1stDibs today.
