Description: Tuareg bowls have been hand-carved from indigenous wood by women of the Tuareg people of Niger. The Tuareg are nomadic pastoralists and these light bowls help to transport food and meals easily. Tuareg bowls are often beautifully incised with intricate patterns perfected through incredible wood carving skills passed down through generations. Authentic, vintage wooden bowls from global communities are increasingly rare to curate, making them perfect investment pieces. Each bowl would have been used to prepare and serve food or used for storage for many years, which in turn has created a wonderful patina, wear, and aging of the wood. The bowls have been lovingly repaired with traditional techniques in keeping with their original authenticity. We love the artisanal restoration as it makes each bowl more special and unique to its final home. Style as a decorative statement piece or use as soulful storage anywhere in the home. As is often the case with these bowls, use has led to cracks which are frequently repaired with metal staples as these nomadic people prefer to preserve these hand-carved objects rather than discard them. Other signs of use and wear include chips to the rims and stains. The dimension is 14 inches wide,9 inches high, and 8 inches deep Please Note: Pictures are an exact representation of the items. Some scratches to attest is usage and age
