Museum-Quality Antique Norwegian Tine Box with Rosemaling, Dated 1850

This is an exceptional and highly collectible antique tine box, a premier example of mid-19th century Norwegian folk art. Dating firmly to 1850, this piece is distinguished by its exquisite combination of hand-carved and hand-painted decorations.

Crafted from bent pine wood in the traditional manner, the box features a hand-carved pattern on the lid, complemented by beautiful, primitive rosemaling that adorns both the body and lid. Its historical significance is profoundly personal, bearing the inscription "Heline Ols Datter Synes 1850". This indicates the box was likely crafted prior to 1850 and presented as a wedding gift in that year, adding a remarkable layer of provenance.

As a high-quality, investment-grade piece, this tine box represents the pinnacle of rustic farmhouse craftsmanship and is an essential acquisition for serious collectors of Scandinavian folk art.

Dimensions (approx.):
--Diameter: 27.5 cm
--Height: 10 cm

The box is in outstanding antique condition, possessing a superb patina that only centuries can bestow. It shows some age-related traces of use consistent to its age.
