Description
A large, elongated, footed wooden bowl, trough-like in form, featuring a dark-stained exterior and a natural wood interior. The bowl contains a collection of carved and turned wooden fruit, including apples, pears, a cluster of grapes, a pinecone, and various other rounded botanical forms. The pieces are crafted from various woods using a combination of wood-turning, hand-carving, and surface texturing techniques. Several items feature red, brown, or black stains to simulate natural colouration while highlighting the underlying wood grain. The ensemble is characteristic of Mid-Century Modern decorative woodcraft. No maker’s marks or signatures are visible on the bowl or the individual fruit pieces.
Bowl length: Approximately 33 inches.
Condition report:
The collection is in good vintage condition. Minor surface scuffs, light scratches, and areas of wear to the finishes are present, consistent with age and decorative use. No significant cracks, structural damage, or repairs are noted.
