A Primitive Bench, Norway, c 1700s

A solid pine bench with two upright end boards as supports, each with a simply carved baroque scroll at the top. The seat is a single thick plank. Minimal, honest construction, the carved detail is the only concession to decoration. Likely Norwegian, 18th century.
