Piece of rural traditional swedish furniture, ready for everyday use.

Original off white and wheat painted colour scheme.  2 deep drawers below the top surface with a double door cupboard below, which opens to reveal a large storage space.

Backboards also show some unusual carved art work.

Obvious losses and flaking to paintwork, which has been stabilised with a coat of lacquer.  Minor losses to woodwork and surface marks.  Structurally strong.  Cupboard doors would benefit from having a new catch installed.  Evidence from the paintwork of previously having a top section, which is no longer present.
