About the Item

This sculptural teak bowl, signed “A. P 61” presents an organic and flowing form that embodies the natural beauty of Scandinavian woodcraft from the early 1960s. The elongated, asymmetric shape is characterized by dynamic curves and pointed edges, creating a sense of movement and fluidity. Hand-carved from solid teak, the bowl reveals the rich grain and natural color variations inherent in the wood, which are enhanced by a smooth, polished surface that highlights its tactile qualities. The craftsmanship suggests a unique, one-of-a-kind creation, likely the work of an independent Scandinavian artisan. The signature and date point to its production in 1961, a period when organic, nature-inspired designs were prominent in Scandinavian applied arts. The bowl’s form balances function with sculpture, making it both a practical object and an artistic statement. Measuring 33 cm in width, 8 cm in depth, and 6.5 cm in height (approximately 13 by 3.1 by 2.6 inches), the bowl’s proportions emphasize its elongated shape and low profile. Its asymmetry and fluid lines provide visual interest from all angles, reflecting a mid-century modern sensibility that values both craftsmanship and organic aesthetics.
