Antique African Tribal Hand Carved Wooden Bowl Possibly Tuareg 26cm

Beautiful antique hand carved African tribal wooden bowl, likely originating from North or West Africa, possibly Tuareg or Saharan region influence. Carved from a single solid piece of wood with striking geometric tribal decoration throughout the exterior. The bowl displays wonderful aged patina, wear and surface character consistent with age and long-term use. The form, carving style and dark patinated finish give it a strong ethnographic presence. A fantastic decorative and collectible tribal art piece. Approximate dimensions: * Diameter: 26 cm * Height: 15 cm Condition: Displays age-related wear, scratches, old drying crack to rim/interior and significant age-related deterioration to the underside as shown in photographs. Structurally still displays very well and retains excellent authentic character and presence. Please study all photographs carefully as they form part of the description. A rare and highly decorative ethnographic wooden bowl with strong tribal aesthetic.
