An Originally Painted Antique / Old Pine Genuine Hungarian Arts & Crafts Box

1900 - 1920
Description

This box is in good condition and from Hungary. It has its original paintwork. The colours are brown tan and green that contrast beautifully.

This box would look well in an old or modern property amongst similar antique pine decorative furniture at the foot of a bed in the middle of a living room for a coffee table or in a corner of a living room to place a TV on top.

This box stands on a bull nosed plinth supporting the main section. There are three beautifully shaped painted panels to the front with a floral design. The top is in good condition. There is a key. It has its original metal hinges. There is a lift up lid with plenty of storage space inside and there is a candle box to the right. It has its original metal carry handles to each end.

The height is 51cm, the width is 117cm and the depth is 56cm.

Delivery Terms

WE OFFER FREE DELIVERY TO ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND (BELOW PERTH)

Shipping /delivery is equally as important to us as the item of furniture itself. It is simple; we deliver everything personally in England / Wales so this way we are 100% sure that the item / furniture reaches our customers safe and sound. We NEVER use couriers. Delivery is generally within 7-14 days of purchase. We guarantee delivery anywhere in England / Wales within 21 days of purchase.

Deliveries to Scotland as far north as Perth are guaranteed within 6 weeks of purchase. If delivery is required above Perth in Scotland please contact James on 07957 392 074 or

james@davidhuntantiques.com for a price.

Deliveries are either carried out by David or James as one member of the team is required to stay in the warehouse, therefore we do require assistance from the van into your hallway with the item of furniture. We have set delivery days and once the van is loaded (a day prior to delivery) David will call customers to arrange a two hour delivery time slot. Customers will also receive a text when delivery is 30 minutes away.

It is really helpful if customers can provide their ‘what3words’ location to make delivery as smooth

as possible, especially properties in rural locations.

Ireland Deliveries

We do use a very good courier company called DVM Service to deliver goods to Ireland. We ask the customer to pay this company direct for the delivery charge and we then liaise with DVM regarding collection of a customer’s item of furniture to be shipped to Ireland.

Europe & Rest of the World

We do not ship to Europe or the Rest of the World.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Folk art chests were traditionally crafted in rural European communities as dower or marriage chests. Often painted by local artisans, these coffers featured regional motifs, floral patterns, and dates marking significant life milestones or family names.

These storage boxes were typically constructed from solid softwoods such as pine or fir, using hand-cut dovetail or mortise-and-tenon joinery. Wrought iron handles, keyhole escutcheons, and strap hinges were standard hardware components.

Authentic pieces feature natural surface wear, faint craquelure, and uneven oxidisation consistent with age. Original paints were often mineral- or tempera-based, displaying softened tones rather than bright modern synthetic pigments.

A painted trunk works as a focal piece at the foot of a bed, an accent coffee table in a living area, or grounded storage in an entrance hallway. Pairing timber patinas with modern fabrics creates a balanced, layered aesthetic.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent shrinkage and paint flaking. Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax sparingly to unpainted timber surfaces to maintain moisture.
