These three coconut bowls are each beautifully carved with scrolling plant life, fierce dragons and long-tailed birds. In the midst of these designs are cartouches with the maker’s signature and a dedication to the recipient. The bowls each come with a silver liner and an attached foot.

Each silver liner is tarnished and two of the three liners have become detached from the coconut bowl, but are otherwise in good condition. They measure 2” x 4 ¾ in. (height x diameter).
