Description

This rustic Swedish folk art box, hand painted in pine circa 1860, offers a charming piece of 19th century Scandinavian craftsmanship. Oval in form with a slightly domed lid, it is decorated with black strapwork and painted in the traditional kurbit manner over a warm brown base. The lock has been removed and the interior later painted a creamy white, with minor age splits and surface scuffs adding honest character.
