This is a lovely and simple carved Ifugao Coconut Bowl used for eating rice or even drinking wine rice from the Ifugao people of the Province, Central Island of Luzon, Philippines. This bowl and others like it would have played an important part in everyday Ifugao life. Most ordinary folk ate their rice out of a common bowl or dished out into small, plain personal bowls, but men of high status among the Ifugao eat from carved wooden bowls. Sometimes a coconut shell cup would be used by priests for ceremonial rice wine drinking during ritual occasions. These bowls are carved and shaped out of a half of coconut. The patina was created from years of use and polishing. This bowl would be a wonderful addition to your home or collection.
