bowl

Round, shallow bowl made of dark wood, standing on four short round feet attached centrally to the underside of the bowl. Two of the feet appear to have been repaired, each consisting of two pieces of wood fixed together. On the outside, the upper rim is decorated with a small band ornament, with vertical decorative elements emerging from this band at evenly distributed points. The rim has a rectangular indentation at two opposite points. A paper label was attached to one of two drilled holes with a string, but most of it has been torn off. The inside of the bowl is roughly crafted, there are several damages and cracks.
