Antique Hand-Painted Wooden Box/Casket – 17th Century
Fascinating antique wooden box made of soft wood, hand-decorated with popular floral motifs and a central heart. The decoration features typical elements of folk art, with red, green, and black colors on a natural background, creating a simple yet very evocative composition.
The box displays a beautiful patina of age, with authentic signs of wear that testify to its history and use over the years. The lid is hinged and features an original metal front clasp.
The upper edge is finished with a shaped, notched profile, an element frequently found in popular domestic items. The top surface retains the rustic, lived-in character typical of everyday objects from that era.
Probably used as a domestic container for small items, sewing, documents, or personal mementos, it now represents a unique decorative piece for interiors with a vintage or rustic taste.
