A Swedish sailor's ditty box. Made of pine with original painted decoration to inside of lid. The external paintwork has acquired the most dramatic texture from years of weather and use, now resembling crocodile skin. Moulding to base has been replaced, and inside of chest repainted, so that it is clean and ready to use.
