Wonderful original condition country bowl, Very dark color it is hard to say its color, to me I would say black or dark brown in some areas and worn to a natural brown wood color in other areas.  Small crack in the bottom and a small crack on one edge as seen in photos. The turning on the underside is beautiful. It has a nice stripped detail near the upper edge, and concentric circles cut throughout the underside.  Hard to see in the photos.  A few scratches to the black underside finish.  It is as shown in photos.
