Wooden Parat Bowls

WOODEN PARAT BOWLS

These gorgeous vintage wooden Parat bowls originates from out in the Thar desert of Rajasthan and has been individually hand carved from a single block of old teak wood. Originally used to mix ingredients in for making breads and alike, these bowls are evocative of the everyday and rhythm to life in India and could continue to be used for this purpose or possibly as a fruit bowl. A tactile object, revealing all the hand made marks of many, many years ago, and repairs along the way – a wonderful and original item, full of charm and character; gorgeous.

Made in India.

“I would just like to reflect and take the time to say thank you -myself and my husband recently travelled a long way top visit your shop and ordered several pieces of furniture as a result. The pieces arrived so well packaged to protect them, and we were blown away by them when we unpacked them – absolutely stunning. They will provide many, many years of enjoyment. I am sure we will visit again in the future as a result and will be sure to infirm others kind regards,”
