A large part of the appeal of primitive antiques is their evocative nature. Of humble origins, and often made by local craftspeople rather than formally trained artisans, primitive antiques were practical and precious family objects, created with great care and used over many generations. Unlike with fine antiques, historic repairs on primitive furniture and objects often add to their collectability, conveying their unique history and multi-generational importance. This 18th Century turned wooden bowl has a beautiful dark rich colour, and a number of historic iron staple repairs. For us these are what makes this bowl particularly special.
