My photos are showing the coloring of the multi brown tones very well with the various darkened areas from over a century of use. My photos show these areas a little darker than actual. This antique dough bowl is extremely generous in size, measuring 23½ in total length by 12¼ in width and sits sturdy and straight at 4 in height, give or take, here and there. This bowl is in super clean condition with no significant damage, very well kept and cared for with no damages or interior cracks. There are some stress lines at the carved out handles but nothing that goes through the wood or has any significant effects on the bowl. How thoughtful of this wood carver to add these very helpful handles. There is also an old hole in one of the handles that was used for hanging this bowl, a common element of antique dough bowls. This bowl has solid medium weight and carries comfortably in two hands.   There are a few cut marks inside this bowl but I am sure it was used primarily for preparing dough or some other food preparations. The wood has a nice feel to it, well smoothed all around and has a nice flat sturdy bottom. This bowl is in it's natural state, no stains, alterations to the wood or other additives, just a little coconut oil to keep it from getting too dry. I'm showing you lots of photos so you can judge it's beauty for yourself. I am sure that you will be delighted with this oval trencher dough bowl, everything about it is stunning and the larger size is hard to find. This bowl will serve all your family's needs for many decades to come. If you like the photos, you will love this bowl, it's has life and appeal, I think it's superb and it's very useful.
