Shepherd's chest, 1850s

A low shepherd's chest, handsome in appearance and harmoniously proportioned. These chests have been made in the same way for centuries. They were decorated with traditional magical geometric symbols, restored to give them a natural look. Originally, the chest was partially painted red, traces of which are still visible. Originating from the mountains of Transylvania around the mid-19th century, this chest is made of beechwood.
