Antique Carved Alabaster Footed Bowl
A beautifully hand-carved alabaster footed bowl, likely late 19th to early 20th century. The bowl is sculpted with a scalloped, lobed form that highlights the natural veining and translucent quality of alabaster, ranging in tones from soft ivory to smoky gray. Resting on a circular foot, the piece showcases both decorative elegance and the timeless appeal of classical stonework.
Alabaster vessels like this were admired during the Victorian and early 20th-century period for their luminous, marble-like appearance and were often displayed as centerpieces on consoles or dining tables. This example’s organic veining and fine craftsmanship make it a striking decorative object for both traditional and modern interiors.
Condition: Presents beautifully with natural inclusions to the stone and some light surface wear consistent with age.
