Antique Straining Box, Side Table, Wabi Sabi Scandinavia, 19th Century

A pine box raised on shaped legs with decorative corner posts. Most likely used upside down as a strainer or draining rack, possibly for cheese or grain. The exact purpose is open to interpretation, which is part of its appeal. Works beautifully as a side table.
