This one outstanding piece.
It is extra large in size and full of charm and character!
Late 19th or early 20th century
Came from an estate where most of the items were Canadian
Inuit. We were told that these were used for large fishing
nets by the fisherman. Great for your large farm table,
kitchen island, or hung on the wall. Could be used for
Holidays filled with greenery and ribbons, load with fruits
or flowers. Would also be a great focal point in a small
shop for display filled with goods.
This piece is a very early solid pine with original rich
green paint. The bottom had four holes made to drain the
water when the nets were thrown in but two of the boards had
been rotted out due to the usage.
They were replaced with old pine that had dry green paint...
as can see, most of that orig. paint is off but left an
attractive aged bottom. A wonderful survivor after years of
service.
Approx. dimensions: 33 inches long, 24 inches deep and 9.75
inches.
