Vintage Large Oval Maple Dough Bowl Trencher, Early 1900 Not What You're Looking For? Click Here To See More Dough Bowls & Woodenware   This is a wonderful antique dough bread bowl from the early 1900's and this trencher has been hand made in a lovely and graceful oval shape. The wood itself is a golden auburn honey hard maple, having tight growth lines as well as a few tiny bird's eye figures scattered about the interior of the bowl.

Between the color, the splendid wavy graining and those characteristic eyes that are found in maple, this bowl has a wonderful personality and is quite pleasing to look at, it is glowing with life.  This oval trencher was hand made during the very early 1900's and was used primarily for food or dough preparation, as I detect no cut marks, so foods were not chopped in this bowl.  I'm showing you lots of photos so you can imagine how fabulous it will look amongst your country decor or woodenware collection.  These oval maple dough bowls are highly esteemed and sought after, it's no wonder why since they are incredibly appealing.  This example is a large, useful and comfortable size of 21½ inches by 11¼ inches and sits steady at varying heights between 3¾ and 4 inches, depending on where you take the measurement. The gentle warping of antique bowls, which causes the height differences, is not just expected but desired.

The wood worker was thoughtful to carve out some notched handles at each end of the underside of the bowl, a nice added feature. This bowl is in particularly remarkable condition, nearly flawless, in fact. I find no crack, hole or damage to this bowl.  Of course, it barely has a few scratches and marks from use but nothing really very conspicuous at all, this dough trencher is much nicer than what is usually found in a bowl of this age. 

The serene patina is rich and warm, the bowl is just gorgeous and I must mention how gracefully the wood thins down at the sides of the bowl.  This is a splendid antique maple dough bread bowl trencher that will find a special place in your heart and on your kitchen Hoosier, sideboard or dining table. This bowl is a  beauty, if you like the color, don't let this one get away, I have a hard time finding large oval dough trencher bowls with this much allure and in such striking condition.
