Vintage Rajasthan hand-painted bridal chest/bridal treasure chest/travel chest made of metal with a secret compartment in one side.
Unique!
Great color combination, lovely bohemian vibe:
~with metal handles on the side & top,
~with a small mirror and a metal tray under the mirror in the lid,
~with a secret compartment on the front with an extra metal pocket,
~closes securely,
~officially a chest for a dowry, subsequently symbolic and decorative in the home, also used for travel,
~(if you like it) includes a set of Rajasthan wood with fabric figures of a man & a woman on red cord; traditionally, the wooden man is given to the woman when she goes on a journey (and vice versa), to maintain the connection (visually) while traveling. Nice decorative vintage (antique?) mood setter, nice next to the sofa to store blankets, nice in the nursery for toys, etc...
Width 72 cm, height 24.5 cm, depth 42 cm.
6.6 kg.
In good vintage condition, naturally with all kinds of imperfections that are part of use; see the photos.
