19th Century French Dough Trough or Bread Bowl. Hand-Carved Chestnut with a Primitive Handle. Beautiful color and patina. Made in Burgundy, France, circa 1850.
7" D 22" L 6" H
Add timeless rustic charm to your space with this authentic 19th-century French dough trough. Hand-carved from a single block of Chestnut Wood, this rustic 19th-century French Dough Trough hails from the Burgundy region of France, circa 1850. Rich with age and patina, the piece features a deeply worn basin used for kneading and rising bread dough, reflecting generations of use in a rural French kitchen.
The trough retains its original handle, designed for ease of grip and tilt, while natural cracks and tool marks highlight its authentic, utilitarian craftsmanship. Its robust form and weathered surface speaks to its practicality, yet today it serves beautifully as a decorative centerpiece- perfect for displaying seasonal florals, candles, or as a charming catchall in any rustic or farmhouse setting.
A rare and evocative artifact of everyday 19th-century French life, this dough trough brings warmth, texture, and heritage into any space!
This rustic wooden object is a 19th Century French Dough Trough or Bread Bowl, handmade and used in rural Burgundy, France, around circa 1850. Known in French as a "trémie à pâte" or "auge à pain", it was traditionally used for mixing and kneading bread dough.
These troughs were essential household tools in rural France, often passed down through generations. Today, they're popular rustic decor or conversation pieces in country-style homes or kitchens.
