Rare Antique 19th Century Hand Carved Tribal Hanging Bowl, Papua New Guinea, c1820
Rare and unusual early 19th century hand carved wooden bowl from Papua New Guinea, c1820. Beautifully carved, with characteristic incised tribal decoration, it has 3 handles and remnants of the leather strap which would have enabled it to be hung off the ground. It has great colour/patina and would be a good addition to any collection of tribal artefacts.

Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me if you would like to view the item or have any questions. Size: 21cm tall x 12cm wide x 12cm deep, weight 0.6kg. About me: I have been a passionate collector of antiques and collectables for over 30 years. My tastes are diverse and range from fine antique furniture, African, Indian and Asian ethnographic antiques and tribal art, to vintage slot machines - the more unusual and curious the better!

I have travelled extensively throughout Africa, Asia, India, North America and much of my collection has been sourced in the Country of origin. After many years of collecting I decided to start to sell and have established'Curious Antiques' which specialises in a range of fine and more unusual antiques. These include fine furniture, religious items, militaria, amusement machines and one of the Countries best collections of African, Chinese, Eastern and Indian tribal and ethnographic antiques. I value your custom and will do all I can to keep you happy and satisfied.
