About the Item

Antique wooden rectangular tramp art box with hidden keyhole, elaborately decorated panels, stained dark brown. Folk art collector's item with a beautiful age patina from the early 20th century. Beautiful form of folk art, anyone could make a tramp art object with what they had on hand, hence it is very rare to find 2 identical pieces, these unique items have a high collector's value and are highly sought after. Tramp art is a style of woodworking that emerged in America in the second half of the 19th century. Some of the defining characteristics of tramp art include chip or notch carving, reclaiming cheap or available wood such as that from cigar boxes and shipping crates, the use of simple tools such as pocket knives, and layering materials into geometric shapes using glue or nails. This item is in very good used condition, no damage to the carvings, usually they are always damaged somewhere, this one has stood the test of time very well, the item still looks fantastic, the key is unfortunately missing, check the photos for more details!
