Early 19th Century Swedish Painted Blanket Box

About the Item

Early 19th century swedish painted blanket box circa 1816. Traditional rag painted swedish box which is initialed and dated 1816.  Flat top lid which makes it ideal for doubling up as a coffee/occasional table. Red/brown main colour scheme, with a plain interior.  Original metalwork with carrying handles to the side. Minor shrinkage between wood joins, surface marks and fading to paintwork.  Losses to both bottom sections of hinges on the reverse, which causes the top to slightly rock when it's open, but still functions for everyday use.
