19th Century Oval Hand Painted Bentwood Brides Box

About the Item

Hand-Painted Bentwood Brides Box. An oval-shaped bentwood style brides box with a painted lid and sides. The lid features a central scene depicting a woman in a yellow gown, pink bow, blue covering, and white veil. The scene is framed by a decorative border and set against a blue background. The sides of the box are painted with a green floral pattern. Painted bentwood bridal boxes are a type of antique storage container that were popular in the 19th and early 20th centuries. They are characterized by their oval shape, curved sides, and painted decoration. The boxes were often used by brides to store personal items or wedding gifts. Bentwood objects are made by wetting wood, then bending it and letting it harden into curved shapes and patterns. Furniture-makers often use this method in the production of rocking chairs, cafe chairs, and other light furniture.
