Origin likely Rajasthan or Gujarat, India. Estimated date of origin: first half of the 20th century (probably during the colonial era). Formerly used for kneading bread dough.
Signs of wear: lightly worn rim, a depression in the middle from use.
A few small cracks, one of them repaired with a hand-nailled iron sheet, presumably long ago.
Surface presumably waxed or polished.
Age estimate: approximate; no appraisal available.

50 cm wide (diameter)
