This is a wooden vessel used by the Turkana tribe in Kenya, Africa. It was made around the 20th century. The material is a hard and slightly heavy wood like elm. Originally, it was a container for squeezing goat's milk. The tip of the container is slightly tapered so that the milk does not spill out due to shaking. Also, the inside of the container has a slightly unique smell because it is the container that put the milk in. It looks like a piece of art with beautiful curves carved out of a square piece of wood. Also, it may have been left near the fire for a long time, and soot and other substances have adhered to it, turning it black and glossy. Please be assured that this soot will not stick to your hands. Usually, it is mostly the color of the wood as it is or a slightly brown color. It is very rare to have such a dark color. You can decorate it with flowers like in the picture, and I think it's very attractive to keep it as an object. It also has holes so you can easily attach it to the wall with strings or nails. Since the base is round and does not stand on its own, it comes with a ring-shaped base wrapped with cloth. Also, if water is added directly, the wood may expand or dry out, causing it to crack. Therefore, put water in another container and put the flowers in it. This is a very rare item given to me by a Japanese collector...
