Title: Large Vintage Hand Carved Burl Wood Pot?
Post by: KevinM on April 13, 2012, 08:35:32 AM
This is a Large  Pot I purchased.

What I would like to know is if this is in fact a Burl Wood Pot, if it is old or vintage.

Thanks!
Kevin

Thats correct but thats for Early American pots, bowls ect !!  From the lines on the inside it appears to have been turned on a lathe of some sort even a hand lathe !!  If that sticker is on it,, its an item made in quantity for export purposes possibly from a home/family industry !!  Wood items and brass is pretty common from India and not worth a lot !! But if you like the old look like I do,, it will still sell !!
