Hand-Carved Two-Tone Floral Hardwood Bulbous Lidded Jar - A hand-carved hardwood vessel and matching lid, featuring a bulbous, squat form and two-tone decorative finish. The body of the jar is ornamented with deeply carved floral motifs, where the raised petals and leaves exhibit a natural light honey-toned wood grain, contrasted against a dark chocolate brown stained background. The vessel is topped with a conical lid that continues the carved petal design, culminating in a multi-tiered turned finial. The base of the piece reveals concentric circular tooling marks, indicating it was initially shaped on a lathe before the relief carving was applied. The interior and base show the natural grain of the wood. No maker’s marks, signatures, labels, or country-of-origin stamps are visible on the exterior or the underside of the base.Diameter: 7 inches across the widest pointHeight: 9.5 inches to the top of the finial.
