small wedding chest

This small, painted wedding chest comes from a collection of various wedding chests. The wedding chest, with its joyful motifs and delicate colors, comes from Slovakia and—as can be seen—was given to the bride in 1845. The idea of the decorative molding is a real success! The playful ball-shaped feet and the wooden appliqués on which the iron handles are mounted are further details that set this chest apart. The iron bands, lock, and key are in perfect condition. The chest can be used as a seat or as a coffee table. A simple, charming little rustic chest with delicate details!
