19th-Century Bentwood Bride's Box with Bee Motif Hand Painted Pennsylvania Dutch
19th-Century Pennsylvania Dutch bride's box with a lovely and unusual bee motif. This antique box is Americana Folk Art at its best.

It is hand painted with bees on all 5 sides accented with a swirl floral motif. It is handcrafted bentwood with tacked and laced construction and retains the original patina and surface. It is oval shaped and has a nicely fitted lid.

We've not seen a box with bees previously; throughout history there is much symbolism in bees. The strength, industriousness, and wisdom of a bee in Christianity is about positive and sweet metaphors. The bee is also the symbol of activity, work, diligence, and good order. Dimensions: 15.25"L x 9.5"W x 6.25H.
