Large Carved Stone Basin

$850

A vintage handwrought Stone Basin resonates today with its sense of deep strength and purpose. Handcarved from a single piece of igneous stone, the naturally raw surface recalls basins made for centuries in the Italian, French and Spanish countrysides, many of which are still in active use today. Like those, this one offers a bracing sense of frugal honesty.

This piece carries particular appeal as it features an invitingly wide mouth relative to depth. In addition, its beautiful coloration ranges from biscuit to golden sand tones. It would be an outstanding piece indoors or out and would portray fresh orchard fruit beautifully or as seen here, offer an ideal setting for a velvety dark scattering of potpourri.
