Barley Twist Wood Pedestal Bowl

This vintage pedestal compote bowl is a beautifully crafted decorative piece featuring a wide shallow bowl atop an elegant spiral-turned stem and round base. Made in China, it showcases traditional craftsmanship with a rich dark brown finish that highlights the natural grain of the wood. The underside is felt-lined with its original “Made in China” label, a mark of authenticity.

Standing about 8 inches tall with a bowl diameter of approximately 9 inches, this piece is versatile in both form and function. It can be used as a fruit bowl, centerpiece, or decorative stand, adding a warm rustic elegance to any space.

The compote remains in good vintage condition, showing light surface wear and faint scratches consistent with age and use, which add to its authentic character. The spiral stem is particularly eye-catching, lending a timeless Old World style that fits well in both traditional and eclectic interiors.
