A unique vintage artist portable painting box that came from Europe. This one is special in that it includes a few of its original tools, such as the two liquid containers, mixing plates and other things. It also includes the artist original painting palette, which is one of the best we've seen and which is layered with remnant paint. We also love the splatter of paint on the interior of the box that took years to develop. It's just an overall lovely piece of art history. The leather belt is meant to hook on the two brass nobs on the side for carrying purposes. It's now a little dry but still nice to have.
