Primitive Hand-Carved Wooden Log Chest – Pegged Construction Rustic Folk Art Box
£ 45.00
On offer is a truly spectacular handmade wooden chest, carved entirely from a solid section of tree trunk. Rustic and raw in the best way, this one-of-a-kind piece showcases traditional handcraftsmanship with pegged joinery — no nails or screws used anywhere in its construction.
Hollowed out with care, the log has been transformed into a charming and functional storage chest, complete with a pegged handle, shaped lid, and squat leg supports. Measuring 12 inches long and just under 8 inches tall, it’s a substantial yet manageable size, ideal for display or practical use.
📌 Key Features:
✅ Solid wood construction – carved from a single tree section
✅ Authentic pegged joints – no nails or modern fasteners
✅ Hand-shaped details – lid, handle, and legs all hewn and fitted by hand
✅ Folk art character – visible tool marks and organic grain
✅ Condition: Good rustic vintage condition with age cracks and marks consistent with natural wear
✅ Fully functional – lid opens and closes smoothly
💡 Styling Tip:
Display on a console or bench in an entryway, use as a jewelry or keepsake box in a cabin-style interior, or add to a curated rustic vignette with pottery and natural materials.
🎁 Perfect For:
✔️ Lovers of organic, natural home decor
✔️ Primitive folk art and rustic woodworking collectors
✔️ Designers seeking unique statement storage
✔️ Thoughtful gift for cabin, lodge, or woodland-style living
🔍 Provenance / Maker Notes:
Maker unknown, likely a folk craftsman working with traditional tools. The use of dowel pegs and the organic shaping suggest mid-20th century or earlier, possibly from a rural or indigenous woodworking tradition.
