Vintage handmade colonial folk art painted hinged wooden storage box wood art

This little box was handmade by my Grandfather. This box was crafted for a purpose but it was found covered in paint and stains from the toolbox which I cleaned up and sanded away to give new space to be coated with joyful colors. The box is painted on all sides including the interior in a folk art style - some of the existing paint was left inside along the rim of the box edge and the latch on the front has some of its original patina....I didnt want the entire box to lose its treasured look. The lid is hinged and the latch folds to fit into a raised notch to hold it closed. The lid also has some grooved lines that run across giving it more character. This craftwork is my creation, from my imagination & 1 of 1 The box is carefully painted & clear coated so it'll now be fun to store any treasure you might hide in it. Details.
