About the Item

This Scandinavian folk‑art treasure is an original 19th‑century Swedish allmoge bowl—an heirloom-quality vessel carved from a single piece of hardwood and stamped underneath, possibly with artisan’s initials (“Sa”). It features a beautifully weathered green paint (Almost Black) on the exterior that’s been lovingly stripped back over time, revealing layers of natural wood grain and coloration—a finish much cherished for its historical authenticity Dimensions: ~13 cm high × 31 × 34 cm (≈ 5 × 12¼ × 13⅜ in) Condition: Shows normal wear consistent with its age—cracks and repairs add to its character but do not affect structural integrity. Provenance: Likely of Swedish rural origin, such bowls were utilitarian pieces often passed through generations, their hand‑carved contours and worn paint embodying their folk‑art heritage . Design Notes: Style: Nordic allmoge / Swedish Folk Art – folk tradition objects made by local artisans for everyday use . The subtle green hue, originally a luxury finish, distinguishes it as a piece once belonging to a well-appointed rural household Robustly carved from hardwood, it presents a low, organic form with gently rounded walls and a softly worn rim—its form is both rustic and elegant. Why It's Special: These bowls were functional wheat‑kneading vessels—robust yet bespoke, and rarely survive in such original condition with intact stamped identity. The restrained green paint and visible provenance marks combine folk‑art authenticity with visual refinement, making it a statement centerpiece or tabletop conversation piece
