Description from the seller
Original Hindelooper footstool.
Hand-painted with Hindelooper motifs and colors.
Hindeloopen is a small town in the province of Friesland and is, with the exception of Sloten, the smallest of the Frisian Eleven Cities. In 2023 Hindeloopen had 860 inhabitants.
The town was once an important trading harbor and was closely connected to the Hanseatic League. Because the town was isolated from the hinterland, Hindeloopen developed its own culture and dialect, different from the rest of Friesland. The town lies directly on the IJsselmeer.
The Hindelooper painting is famous worldwide. From the 17th century the Hindeloopers had their own style in which they painted their furniture, bedstead panels, travel chests, and miniature furniture, with their own colors and motifs.
This lot has been carefully cleaned and will be carefully packed, registered, and insured for shipping (with a Track & Trace code so you can follow the shipment). Pickup in (Ridderkerk, South Holland) is also possible. I have tasty hand-ground coffee.
