About the Item

This rustic wooden container dates to the early 20th century and was once used to store dry goods or household items in a provincial home in Yunnan province. Hollowed from a single tree trunk, the wide container has an organic, asymmetrical form and a faceted exterior textured by blade marks, chisel notches and the irregular wear of antique wood. Darkened with a rich patina, the primitive vessel brings fantastic texture to modern interiors as a planter, basket or decorative accent. Minor restoration to losses and splits to sides.
