Teak - India - first half 20th century

Indian dough or kneading bowl (parat), probably teak wood, crafted from a single piece. Two sharply tapered handle corners, circular bead carving around the foot. Origin likely Rajasthan or Gujarat, India. Estimated date of origin: first half of the 20th century (probably during the colonial era). Formerly used for kneading bread dough. Signs of wear: lightly worn rim, a depression in the middle from use. A few small cracks, one of them repaired with a hand-nailled iron sheet, presumably long ago. Surface presumably waxed or polished. Age estimate: approximate; no appraisal available.
