Some have small cracks, or minor repairs. They are great to use as centerpieces, or as hallway catch-alls. They are a handsome fireside accessory for holding logs, tools or magazines. These large examples were used in multi-family or small scale commercial baking as well as for washing clothes or even bathing the baby and were frequently used mounted on oak stands. This is a beautiful trog which sits very nicely in its oak stand. The stand has three stiles in the trestle ends, with sled feet and a nicely notched central stretcher secured each end with a wooden key.
The stand might not always have been paired with this bowl. less
