Free Shipping! Scandinavian Pantry Box, Folk Art Carved Design, Exceptionally Large, 19th Century

The design is complex and primarily floral in motif. Most of the design has been carved into the wood using a fine-tipped veining chisel. Some of the design appears to have been created by hammering a die into the wood. A marvelous golden patina has developed with time and use. Look closely at the photos to appreciate the beautiful workmanship that went into this piece. The box is impressive and with the scale of the design it is an item for the most discriminating collector, worthy of any museum collection specializing in folk art. Boxes of this quality are available directly from shops in Norway but at often well over $1000 plus shipping from Norway. This box came to the U.S. years ago with immigrants eliminating the costs of obtaining one from Europe!
