Description from the seller
A charming and decorative Scandinavian sewing box with folkloric painting, featuring the year 1949.

• The box is made of wood and carries a colorful decoration in rosemaling style or folk-art motifs: graceful floral shapes, stylized leaves, flowing lines in warm colors.
• On the lid the year “1949” is clearly painted, suggesting that it was either manufactured in that year or finished (or personalized) in that year.
• At the front there is a heart-shaped lock plate, attached with small nails — typical of mid-20th-century handcraft.
• Inside, the cabinet is internally organized with partitions / compartments, suitable for sewing notions, threads, etc.
