Red Rawhide Laced Wood Bowl 20" (101bc17)

This is a listing for a genuine Tarahumara Indian rawhide laced, western painted wooden dough bowl.  It features a rawhide patch work on the front. Indian dough bowls are carved by hand from native yellow pine and begin as a piece of a downed tree trunk.

The Indian log bowls are made by splitting the trunk in half lengthwise then rough cut with an axe. The carved wooden dough bowls are shaped and further worked with a machete or large knife. This traditional shallow Tarahumara Indian bowl has a round bottom and rustic finish with hand lacing of genuine rawhide. The character of primitive bowls adds a sense of rustic beauty to create a natural atmosphere for southwest log homes, cabins and cottages as well as any ranch or country style.

Measures approximately 8.25" wide, 20" long. Picture is of actual item.
