Original Blue Folk Art Painted Bench
Ref: 1945
This is not a box bench but does have storage, most unusually there are two doors to the front with wooden catches, it is a good size, being medium rather than long length and it has original blue paint with folk art details, two white birds, and flowers. Hard to date as some of these pieces were touched up or painted again by the next generation who inherited these pieces as heirlooms and in the early twentieth century before War and the modern age broke up the old ways but the age of the wood suggests 19th century. Again, a piece from the hidden valleys of central Transylvania.
