Vintage Norweigian Rosemaling umbrella - walking stick stand made in a barrel stave style. Rosemaling is a Norwegian decorative folk painting tradition, meaning "rose painting," that emerged in the 1700s. It features elaborate, stylized floral designs and flowing scrolls painted onto wood and other surfaces, with distinct regional styles like the free-flowing Telemark style. The art form, which began with peasants and farmers, was a way to beautify and decorate wooden objects and architectural features in homes and churches.
