Antique Primitive Maple Dough Bowl Trencher

Oh my goodness! I am just so taken with this fabulous Antique Primitive Maple Dough Bowl that has such a great rich honey color finish! Maple is such a wonderful wood and has characteristics of detailed graining that I find very appealing. It has a hint of that tiger maple look which is fabulous. The bowl is smooth to the touch and fashioned from one piece of wood. This trencher shows indications of wear in several places that portray nicks and indentations which have darkened with age. There are about six darker circular spots on the inside of the bowl that resemble a dry berry color mixed with nutmeg. The small oval handles on each end have convenient holes crudely done in the center. One handle has a small crack in the center of this hole but is still very sturdy! Both handles have cracks on the underside. There is also a 2" area, on the back, that has white marks just visible at the base. Overall condition is very good as most of these dough bowls usually are found with large crack
