About the Item
An exceptional 18th-century Swedish folk art box, dated 1752, showcasing traditional rural craftsmanship. Carved from solid wood, the box features a finely fitted sliding lid and distinctive chip-carved joinery along the corners, reflecting the functional artistry of Scandinavian domestic life.
Originally used to store small household items, this box has a rich, timeworn patina that tells the story of its age and use. The clearly inscribed date "1752" offers a direct historical connection, making it a rare and meaningful collectible.
Its minimalist form, tactile surfaces, and weathered finish align beautifully with the Wabi-Sabi philosophy — valuing simplicity, imperfection, and authenticity. A wonderful accent piece for interiors that blend history with understated style.
