Antique African Turkana / Pokot Tribe Wooden Bowl – Antique Kenyan Milk Bowl Wooden container/bowl used by the Pokot and Turkana people of northern Kenya. These bowls are carved by the women using traditional tools, the indigenous Acacia tree, thread and leather. Often these bowls are used to receive cow's blood that is obtained by piercing the jugular vein, and then afterward plugging the hole to stop the bleeding.  The cow's blood is mixed with the cow's milk and then consumed for nourishment. Sometimes when eating the meat of the cow, it is first dipped into this mixture. This particular bowl is many decades old and features several repairs by the native tribes people. Another point of interest with this piece is a fairly recent repair using orange dyed thread on a small portion of a hem. The Turkana way of life is rapidly changing and these types of traditional artifacts are becoming quite scarce. This antique bowl would make a wonderful piece of rustic tribal art décor for your home. Approximate Dimensions: 7” High x 12-1/4” Wide x 9” Deep Weight: 1.6 lbs. #AntiqueAfricanBowl #AntiqueAfricanBasket #AfricanMilkBowl #BloodBowl #TurkanaTribe #Kenya #Africa #AfricanAntique #AfricanTribes #TribalWoodBowl #PokotTribe #AntiqueKenyanMilkBowl #TurkanaMilkBowl #WoodBowl #AntiqueWoodBowl #Antiques #Decor #HomeDecor https://www.instagram.com/p/CHF11oIHWP9/?igshid=1cm8dcwr5cowh
