Exceptional antique Tramp Art box (25 x 15 cm) from the period around 1890 to 1920. This authentic piece of traditional folk art was elaborately handcrafted using the so-called layered notch carving technique – a technique in which thin wooden boards (classically from old cigar boxes) were finely notched at the edges and layered on top of each other in a pyramid shape.
