Description: Treenware, or Treen as the English Colonists called it, refers to items like cups, bowls and containers made by the early Pioneer and early settlers in America before metal or copper was able to be fashioned into objects. For sale are early examples of two vessles made by colonial wood workers. You can tell how valuable they were because when they began to split the, the settlesrs stuffed the cracks with cotton and other materials, and eventually crude staples were used. Wooden objects like these have survived less well than those of metal or stone, and their functional and undecorated forms have become highly regarded by designers and collectors. These are great primitive artifacts, let me know if you have any questions.
