A terrific museum quality piece, remarkable preservation. These types of shelves are really useful in the kitchen or elsewhere to hold spices, and all sorts. This one has original folk art decoration of flowers and colourful organic forms typical of one region in Northern Hungary. It would have been made at the time of a marriage for the dowry suite. It has three small hooks intact at the bottom.
