Vintage Norwegian Chip Carved Wooden Box | 1978 Folk Art Storage Box | Hand Carved Scandinavian Karveskurd Chest
$195.00
This vintage Norwegian wooden box dates from 1978 and is decorated using traditional chip carving, known in Norway as karveskurd. The hand-carved geometric patterns feature repeating rosette and star motifs, a classic design associated with Scandinavian folk art and rural craftsmanship.
The box is made as a lidded storage container, historically used for keeping small personal items, keepsakes, or jewelry in Nordic homes. The interior of the lid is hand-dated, confirming its Norwegian origin and year of production. The surface shows clear signs of use, giving the piece an authentic and well-aged character.
One hinge is slightly loose, consistent with age and regular use, but the box remains structurally sound. Overall, this is a decorative and functional example of late 20th century Scandinavian folk craftsmanship.
