About the Item

A museum-quality primitive antique tine of exceptional rarity, handcrafted in Norway's Trøndelag region in 1798. Representing the pinnacle of Scandinavian folk art, this pine box was a functional storage piece, now preserved as a significant collectible. The vessel is distinguished by its professionally painted baroque-inspired pattern, which gracefully encircles the body and lid. The lid is inscribed with the original date "1798" and the initials "M.P.D.O.", offering a direct link to its history. It possesses a stunning, deep patina that has developed over two centuries, a testament to its age and authenticity. Condition: The tine is in outstanding antique condition. It exhibits remnants of its original painting and has minor, age-related wear consistent with its use as a rustic farmhouse object.
