19th Century Original Swedish Blue Pine Box

About the Item

Northern Swedish blue pine box from Hälsingland in northern Sweden. The box is from the 19th century and likely from the village Norrala. The box was likely a friargåva, a gift given from a man to the woman he was courting. This box has a dating, 1855 and a woman’s monogram. Because Swedish last names were based on the fathers name with the addition of -son and -dotter respectively, the D in the monogram shows it was a woman’s initials. Untouched original paint and healthy and solid wood. The lock is missing. Boxes like this were for storing valuables, such as jewellery or bibles.
