Originally used as a marriage or dowry chest gifted to a newly married couple in Sweden, this beautiful antique hand-painted chest is a perfect storage piece for the modern home. The chest is decorated with a lovely kurbits floral motif, common to the Swedish folk art style, and begs to be kept in a room for all to see. Whether used for stowing away throw blankets and sweaters during the warmer months or hiding children’s toys year-round, the chest is perfect in size to use as a stylish coffee table.
