Antique Tarred Wooden Pot Europe, 17th century

$780
Description

Obscure, this antique wooden pot covered in tar is full of wabi-sabi charm. With a distinctive flat handle adorning one side, the pot has an asymmetrical form of an unconventional elegance. The tar gives the pot a rough finish with areas of age and wear  revealing the ancient wood underneath. It was possibly used as a pot for tar applying tar in shipping or roofing.

Béton Brut presents rare, design-led furniture from Europe and Japan. The collection, drawn from over a century of design, coheres around functional art & sculptural forms. Béton Brut comes from the concrete finish used in modernist architecture. It is rational yet organic, just like the collection.
