Lathe Chatter Wood Bowl W/ Lid

This decorative wooden bowl dates from the mid-20th century, likely the 1960s during the Modern design movement.

It features a combination of hand-carved floral motifs on the lid and distinctive lathe chatter work on the sides, which creates the textured pattern through a controlled vibration technique during turning.

These decorative bowls were popular household items during the Mid-Century Modern era, particularly those made in Japan for export to Western markets.
