Parat Long Bowl 53 cm

Description

Vintage Indian Rectangular Parat Bowl – Handcrafted Wooden Vessel

Rich in history and character, this vintage Indian rectangular parat bowl has been hand-carved from solid teak and acacia wood and finished with a soft wax to preserve its natural patina. Measuring 53 x 13 x 11 cm, the long narrow shape makes it both sculptural and functional within the home.

Originally used in traditional Indian kitchens for mixing dough and preparing food, parats are deeply connected to everyday culinary traditions. Over time the wood develops a beautiful timeworn surface, with softened edges, subtle markings and a warm, aged tone that reflects years of practical use.

Each piece is entirely unique. Variations in wood grain, colour and gentle wear give every bowl its own story and individuality, making it a special decorative object as well as a functional vessel.

Today this vintage wooden parat makes a striking centrepiece for a dining table, a rustic fruit bowl for the kitchen bench, or a decorative tray styled with candles, vessels or seasonal objects. Its organic texture and historic charm bring warmth, authenticity and soul to both contemporary and traditional interiors.
