HERE WE HAVE: A vintage root ball or burl? Possibly a teak wood root ball. It’s about 14 in diameter and a hair under 37lbs, so pretty big and heavy. Could be used as a standalone sculpture or repurposed, maybe a lamp base? This is a root ball, so it has flaws to it by design! There are some cracks to the piece. Some dust and dirt in the crevices. Will come as shown, so p. The “not as described” return option is not to be used to resolve damaged item cases.

A striking hand-carved natural burl wood bowl, crafted from a single root section and shaped into a highly sculptural organic form. The piece displays the unmistakable characteristics of true burl-complex swirling grain, dense knot clusters, and dramatic protrusions that create a powerful presence from every angle. This example shows excellent visual balance: the lower-root extensions form a stable tripod stance, while the upper section opens into a deep, naturally contoured bowl. The interior retains the darker heartwood tones, contrasted beautifully with the warm honey-amber outer surface. The finish is smooth, tactile, and richly polished, enhancing the natural figure of the burl. Likely carved from camphor burl or a similar hardwood commonly used for artisanal root sculptures during the mid-20th century. Each piece is inherently unique, and this one has a highly expressive shape suitable as a table centerpiece, sculptural art object, or large natural display vessel. 17″L × 11″W × 8.75H Weight: 4.5 lb (Measured at the widest points). No cracks of structural concern; only natural irregularities inherent to burl wood. A strong and visually dynamic example ideal for collectors of organic modernism, rustic décor, and natural-form sculpture. This is a one-of-a-kind piece, with strong sculptural presence.
