A Wooden Planter, Wabi Sabi Style, Norway, 19th century

A tall vessel hollowed from a single log, originally made as a storage container for grain or flour. The base is fitted and secured with wooden pegs. Two tabs rise from the rim, each pierced to take a peg or bar that held the fitted lid in place. The surface shows a strong, open grain and a deep, mellow patina, with the softer growth rings worn back over time. Wear consistent with age and use
