Add authentic tribal character to your space with these rare Vintage Naga Water Troughs, hand-carved from solid teakwood in the early 20th century. Sourced from the rugged hills of Nagaland in Northeast India, these sculptural vessels were traditionally used by the Naga tribe to husk grains—each one shaped by hand using primitive tools, preserving irregular lines and an aged patina that speaks of generations past.
✦ Key Features:

• Versatile Decorative Use – Upcycle into a low coffee table, hallway bench, planter base, or statement display piece in modern rustic, industrial, or tribal-inspired spaces.
