Measuring 17 inches in diameter x 4 7/8 inches high x 3/4ths inch thick, this formidable wooden treenware bowl dates to the 19th century and comes from a multi-generational, Ledyard, Connecticut estate.The bowl retains its original finish with warm and rich patina typical of a piece of this vintage. Fine condition with no cracks, chips or gouges. This circa 1850s piece is representative of the common type of serving and table ware used by those who could not afford the luxury of expensive pewter or ceramic pieces. Treenware was made at home, and thus, was practical, durable and highly affordable in nature! Interior Design Decorator's take notice: This piece would make a phenomenal table top display in an elegant country home!

Fresh from a multi-generation New England estate are two matching, stacking, 19th century, wooden pantry boxes. They were originally assembled using glue, wooden pegs, and square head nails, although many of these were replaced at some point with early round head nails. Condition is quite good with some age-related separation of wood as seen in photos---nothing that disturbs the structural integrity or visual appeal of this very early pair. Both retain wonderful, all-original patina. Please see photos for a fine representation of all angles and insides and outsides of both boxes. The covers of both boxes fit nicely despite the crooked appearance suggested in my photos! Measurements are 6 inch diameter by 2.5 height and 5.5 inch diameter by 2 inch height. The smaller box fits nicely into the larger or they may be stacked one atop the other for display!
