Antique Primitive Hand Carved Wooden Washboard Laundry Board Folk Art Heavy Solid Wood
Unusual antique primitive wooden washboard / traditional laundry scrubbing board.
A lovely characterful old piece featuring distinctive hand-carved diagonal and chevron-patterned ridges, a shaped V-cut base and an unusual recessed detail at the top.
Made from substantial, heavy solid timber with attractive natural ageing, patina and signs of age-related wear.
Possibly European in origin. Estimated circa late 19th to early 20th century (approximately 1880–1920), although exact age and origin are unconfirmed.
A wonderful piece of traditional domestic history with great primitive folk-art appeal. Would display beautifully in a country kitchen, farmhouse, antique collection or rustic interior.
