They held clothes, textiles and the family&#8217;s most valued personal items. The vibrant palette \u2014 blue, green, red \u2014 reflected Alpine and Balkan popular taste.<\/p>\n<p>The case is built from pine boards joined with reinforced mitre, with a hinged top on iron straps and a central lock. The turquoise paint sits over an older green base that surfaces in small losses and on edges. A low perimeter moulding completes the silhouette. The turned feet are a recent addition that gently raises the piece.<\/p>\n<p>The patina shows a vivid surface, with frank wear revealing the green base and the warm wood at rub points. The central lock plate keeps its stable oxidation and full character. No modern restoration to the paint: the chromatic reading is entirely original.<\/p>\n<p>It works as a piece of character at the foot of a bed, a trunk-coffee table in a rustic-contemporary living room, or an auxiliary seat in an entryway. Its saturated colour fits boho, Alpine, Scandinavian or wabi-sabi interiors that welcome colour as an accent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Details<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Materials and techniques:<\/strong> Solid pine wood; original turquoise paint over green underlayer; wrought-iron hinges and lock plate; added feet<\/li>\n<li><strong>Place of origin:<\/strong> Central Europe<\/li>\n<li><strong>Period:<\/strong> Late nineteenth \/ early twentieth century<\/li>\n<li><strong>Date of manufacture:<\/strong> Circa 1900<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dimensions:<\/strong> Length 68 cm &#8211; Depth 36.5 cm &#8211; Height 38 cm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Condition:<\/strong> Good.
