About the Item
This unique hand-carved wooden bowl is a striking example of Anthroposophic craftsmanship, likely originating from the Dornach workshops associated with Rudolf Steiner’s movement during the 1930s. Carved from a solid block of wood, the bowl features a deeply sculpted, organic rectangular form with softly undulating edges and visible tool marks, emblematic of the spiritual and tactile design philosophy of the Anthroposophical movement.
The surface bears natural imperfections and intentional asymmetry, emphasizing the artisan's reverence for the material's innate character and the spiritual ideal of imperfection as beauty. This expressive approach was central to Steiner’s teachings and the output of the workshops at Dornach, Switzerland, where crafts were seen as both functional and spiritually resonant.
A rare and authentic piece of Steiner-influenced art, this bowl is not only a functional object but also a sculptural statement, ideal for collectors of Anthroposophic design, Wabi-sabi interiors, or rustic-modern aesthetics.
