Looks like teak, and made out of one piece of wood, which is nice. No maker’s mark on the base? You should use a food safe oil like pure linseed or tung oil to prevent it from drying out, plus it will really bring out the grain.
Thank you Mary!!! Where can I get the oil you suggested? Have a wonderful day!????
Found the oil at home depot it looks beautiful now. thanks again Happy New Year
It is usually called treen or treen ware, they carve a lot of these at craft fairs you can sometimes find them. Very nice for you to find this, a beauty !~
If you have to use oil, any furniture oil from walmart will work.
How old do you think this bowl is Phil 1800s??
Thanks again!
