About the Item
A rare and evocative Swedish hand-carved wooden bowl, dating from the late 18th to early 19th century. Crafted from birch, this rustic vessel embodies the timeless beauty of the wabi-sabi philosophy — embracing imperfection, age, and natural wear.
The bowl shows a rich, weathered patina from generations of use, along with visible cracks that have been thoughtfully repaired using traditional staples — a testament to its enduring value and functionality. One side bears an old maker’s mark or ownership initials carved underneath, offering a subtle historical trace of its provenance.
Likely used in a rural Swedish household, this piece is both a sculptural object and a functional artifact. It adds warmth, authenticity, and a poetic sense of time to any interior — perfect for collectors of folk art, Scandinavian antiques, or those drawn to organic, lived-in design.
