Description from the seller
a pair off hand-carved wooden lidded storage pot , spice jars resting on three short feet, featuring intricate relief carvings of palm trees and tropical foliage
This style of folk art is widely associated with hand-crafted exotic or ethnographic woodwork from Madagascar (often called a bonbonnière or Malagasy tobacco pot), as well as vintage Polynesian or South Pacific decorative crafts from the mid-to-late 20th century. They are typically turned and carved from dense hardwoods like rosewood or African mahogany, then finished with a dark stain or wax.
