Couldn't load pickup availability
A substantial Irish dairy bowl in sycamore, dating to the late 18th or early 19th century. Turned from a single block of wood, this piece retains its original dry, untouched surface and exhibits the soft wear of generations of use. The form is broad and shallow, with a gentle taper and honest tool marks — a testament to vernacular craftsmanship and utilitarian beauty.
Date: Circa 1780–1820.
Origin: Ireland.
Material: Sycamore.
Features: Original surface, hand-turned, dry patina.
Condition: Minor age-related wear; structurally sound. There are traces of old worm; however, this is inactive and historic, and has been treated too as a precautionary measure. Please refer to the images.
Dimensions: Diameter 43 cm (17") x Height 10 cm (4")
A tactile and evocative survivor of Irish domestic life, ideal for collectors of treen, dairy antiques, and vernacular woodware. Its scale and authenticity make it a striking centrepiece or display item.
