Small Original Painted Swedish Pine Dome Top Trunk dated 1877

About the Item

Small dome top trunk from Sweden dated 1877 and monogram of AJS. The burnished red background is all hand painted in the traditional folk style of the era. Even the interior was painted in this lovely example of Swedish country craftsmanship from the 19th century. The paint has been worn off and distressed down to the natural pine wood below in many areas. The worn patina adds to its ageless appeal, while other signs of wear are commensurate with age such as the small cracks along the top, nicks, marks, distress etc., none of which detract from the beauty of this highly original painted trunk. Restored, this trunk is strong, stable and ready to be enjoyed. No lock. Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition, and details; photo lighting, individual monitor display and home lighting all impact how item is viewed. Photos are part of item description, please ask questions or request additional photos of specific areas if needed.
