Europe » Antique Pine Box with Carving & Geometric Symbols
Ref: 5058
Have you ever peered from the window of an aeroplane and looked down on the Taurus Mountains, or on the stony bleak mountain ranges of the Balkans skirting the Adriatic or Mediterranean seas and wondered what on earth went on down there, what villages or life there was in those remote places, well maybe this box gives you a clue, a really primitive piece, hard to age, maybe very old, an authentic dry look, carved & with curious geometric symbols.
It’s a small to medium sized box, good condition, clean to the interior.
Eastern Mediterranean c.1800
