Nice balanced form hewn from one piece of ash with the bowl of the burl and the handle into the straight grain. Dark patina exhibiting an extensive use history. RARE.

Like example pictured in my book, North American Burl Treen, page 181, plate 9/30 a/b. and in Important Americana From The Collection of Mr. & Mrs. James O. Keene, Sotheby's, 1997, lot 7.
