Comes with working key, item opens to reveal a fitted interior with twin caddies & central crystal mixing bowl which is a later addition.

Antique Primitive American Paint Decorated Tool or Document Storage Box
Located in Atlanta, GA
This antique American storage box exudes a charming rustic appeal with its hand-painted design on a sturdy wooden surface.

This piece is a must-have for antique enthusiasts who appreciate the history and craftsmanship of the past. Green & Brown paint.
The Antique Primitive American Paint Decorated Tool or Document Storage Box is a unique and charming piece of American folk art. These boxes were commonly used in the 18th and 19th centuries to store tools, documents, or other small items.
The box is typically made of wood and features a simple, rustic design. It may have dovetail or nailed construction, showcasing the craftsmanship of the time. The surface of the box is often hand-painted with decorative motifs or patterns, adding a touch of color and artistry.
The paint decoration on these boxes can vary greatly, depending on the region and the individual artist. It may include floral designs, geometric patterns, or even scenic landscapes. The paint is typically applied in a folk art style, with bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors.
These storage boxes were primarily functional, but the paint decoration adds an aesthetic appeal that makes them highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts of American folk art. They are a testament to the creativity and resourcefulness of early American craftsmen.
The age and condition of an antique primitive American paint decorated tool or document storage box can greatly affect its value. Boxes in good condition with well-preserved paint decoration are particularly prized by collectors.
This type of antique box serves as a fascinating glimpse into American history and the everyday lives of the people who used them. They make wonderful additions to collections of folk art, Americana, or vintage storage containers...
