Hand-Painted Wooden Storage Box – Antique Nautical Fishing Boat Chest – Restored with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint
This antique wooden storage box is a true one-of-a-kind find, rich with maritime history. Originally handmade for use on a fishing boat, it has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its character while adding a fresh, coastal-inspired style.
The exterior has been painted in Annie Sloan’s ‘Graphite’ chalk paint, with a hand-painted stenciled design in ‘Old White’ for a timeless, rustic look. The original hardware remains, secured with rope – a charming nod to its seafaring past. Inside, the box features a vibrant coat of Annie Sloan’s ‘Provence’, reminiscent of clear ocean waters.
Perfect for nautical home décor, vintage-inspired storage, or as a statement accent piece, this wooden box combines history, functionality, and artisan craftsmanship.
Buying History
Each piece of furniture I sell is hand-painted and antique, carrying with it a history and character that cannot be replicated. Because of this, you may notice small marks, imperfections, visible brush strokes, or subtle signs of age – these are not flaws, but part of the story each piece tells. They reflect the life it has lived and the craftsmanship behind it, making every item truly one of a kind. No two pieces are ever the same, and that uniqueness is exactly what makes them so special.
