The Memory of Motion
Vintage Wooden Pot - 2
About the Product
The Vintage Turned Wooden Storage Pot is a beautifully aged wooden vessel, shaped on the lathe with a rounded body, broad neck and distinctive flared rim. Its deep brown surface carries the warmth of natural timber, with visible grain, tonal variations and the subtle marks of years of handling.
Vessels like this belonged to rural Indian households, where they held provisions and other essentials. Place it on a console, sideboard or open shelving, or on the floor as a standalone sculptural object, or use it to hold dried branches and foliage.
Its warm timber and rounded form work particularly well alongside stone, linen, plaster and other natural materials in contemporary interiors.
Price mentioned is per product.
Each piece is one of a kind. Size, colour and markings vary from piece to piece. Photographs are close, but the piece may look slightly different in person and from different angles. Cracks and surface wear are part of the original piece and add to the beauty of it.
About the Chapter
From The Memory of Motion, Origin & Form's first collection.
This piece has already made a journey. Long before it reached you, it moved: carried, wheeled, passed from hand to hand. It carries decades in its grain and the wear of the roads behind it.
You're not buying an object. You're buying the moment it stopped moving.
