Antique Victorian 1860s bowl, Antique bowl, Wood Shavings Bowl, Decorative bowl

Description: Ok, I wish I knew exactly what this type of pedestalled bowl is called, but for right now I'm calling it a wood shavings and silk bowl. It was made in the Victorian Era, I am thinking around the 1860s, of wire, cardboard, wood shavings and red silk taffeta fabric. To me it is a marvelous object of art from the high Victorian Era where people didn't just toss away items, but used what was at hand. I am inclined to believe that this was homemade by a lady using an article found in a magazine such as La Mode Illustree, Godey's Ladies Magazine etc. Arts and Crafts was widely encouraged for women to decorate their houses or sell items at bazars!Please see photos for condition and flaws Measurements:5" tall5 1/2" diameter at top3 1/4" diameter at base Listing for pedestaled only, lace table runner and glass dish not included This item is sold as is, as it is a vintage or antique piece. I make every effort to photograph and disclose all the flaws I notice so that you can see what you will be getting before you buy. I do not offer refunds unless I grossly mis-represent what I am selling, so please ask a lot of questions before you buy! My house is also home to our Rosie Dog. I make every effort to make certain there are no Rosie hairs on the products I sell. This item comes to you from a pet friendly, non-smoking home. However, I have purchased it from another person, and they may have smoked or had animals. I make every effort to sell clean, offensive-fragrance free items! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hello there! I thought I would share a little bit about who you are buying this item from. My name is Gina and for the past 40 years, I have been an avid collector of antiques. At one point in time, my dream was to have a fabulous fashion museum that housed clothing, underwear, shoes, accessories and various items from the 1830s to the 1930s. Well, over time, that dream became a very unhealthy obsession so I am selling the vast majority of my museum off. My obedience to God is your gain! For most of last year I sold quite a bit of the museum on my Instagram page @thehouseofwhyte and that was fun, but a little too regimented for me and caused quite a bit of stress and anxiety. I am hoping that eBay is a better place to offer my items to new homes! I also sell newly crafted items on Etsy at theHOWboutique, if you would like to check out my integrity as a seller there! Happy Shopping, Gina
