Large 19th Century Painted Marriage Trunk

This is a truly breathtaking piece. Early 19th century in age and completely original. The painted decoration is extremely fine and the colours are still rich. The central panel showing Jesus and the side panels as floral displays. The patina and age are not done justice in the images and are far better in person. The interior is clean and has the original candle box with lid, the lock works effortlessly and is still the original lock as is the key. There are the names of the couple painted on the edge of the lid and dated 1835. We believe this to Austrian in origin.
