Vintage SE Asian Hand-Carved Black & Natural Wood Lidded Bowl (1950s–1980s)

Bring a touch of global artistry to your space with this beautifully hand-carved wooden lidded bowl. Featuring a striking contrast of matte black stain and natural carved floral details, this piece reflects mid-century Southeast Asian craftsmanship likely from the Philippines or Thailand, where blackened wood carving was especially popular between the 1950s and 1980s. The rounded form, etched floral pattern, and classic hand-turned lid make it a wonderful accent for boho, eclectic, or world-traveler décor. Perfect for jewelry, keepsakes, small trinkets, or simply displayed as an artful object on a shelf or tabletop.
