About the Item
Antique Danish Mangle Board Love Token with Stylized Horse from 1744. Made in Denmark.
Danish folk art board with a carved stylized horse as a handle for mangling, dated 1744.
These wooden boards were used to smoothe and press linen before the invention of modern irons. Damp linen was wrapped around a roller and then the board was rocked back and forth over it to press out wrinkles. The handle is often carved in the shape of a horse.
In Scandinavia these mangle boards were a typical gift made or commissioned by a young man for his wife to be. Typically carved with the their initials and date or year of engagement.
This particular board features intricate carved symmetrical motifs. Also the initials "KND" or "KAD" and "1744".
Richly colored with the original paint in green and red. The carved horse handle has fine details like a wavy mane.
