Mexican Folk Art 17 Wood Dowry Chest Baul Box Colonial Furniture Painted Birds
This is a rare piece and a beautiful example of Mexican / Spanish colonial folk art. It is a hand-made, and hand-painted, barrel top chest (baul) from the state of Guerrero. The chest is intricately painted on all sides with stylized deer and birds and f. Bold colors and a rich waxed finish. There are no hinges. The arched top just sits on the base, but you can easily add a hinge if you want one. Overall the piece measures 13″ tall by 17″ wide and 12 deep. Olinala is famous for its production of fine chests (bauls), gourds and furniture, which are intricately painted. This piece too is from the Rio Balsas river region in Southern Guerrero, home to the Nahua Indians that paint these pieces in the same style as the amate bark paintings. Coffers and chests (bauls) were often intended as dowry chests used to store valuables. A fabulous capsule of colonial culture and indigenous folk art.

Please see all auctions images. We apologize for the camera flash glare. All mobile devices and computer monitors see colors differently. The painting is more on the darker sides, with cranberry brown colors, olive green colors, royal blue colors, bright whites, sepia, gold, yellow, black and browns. Gorgeous original signed oil painting, dating to April 1989. Size is 12″ by 16 ” inches on heavy thick paper board, with the overall size being approximately 15.5 inches by 19.5 inches, with frame. Condition of painting is very good and clean, with a small surface scratch. The wooden frame is in distressed condition with some scratches, nicks, dents and wear, but is clean. Please note, there is a hook on back, which I left as is, but I recommend adding screw eye hooks and wire to hang painting properly. Painting moves only very slightly in frame. I believe the frame was custom made for the painting. Women, men, children, dogs, cats, white chickens, a horse, sheep, a cow, boy with fishing pole, stuffed teddy bear, a red barn with hay and a farmer, a stone house, a baby cradle, blue enamel wear, rakes, quilts, rugs, farming tools, a clock, geese, chairs, a hurricane lamp, bureaus, furniture, a water pitcher and bowl, a spinning wheel, chairs, baskets, a butter churn, apples, maple syrup jugs, farming tools, an oil lamp, with all sorts of goodies. Painting would be lovely in a colonial home, salt box house, antique shop, a farm house, with the old Americana charm. Perfect for the Americana Fall Art Collector. Painting is a one of a kind gem and to be cherished. This is an ORIGINAL acrylic painting. Please write any questions. Thank you very much.
