Hello,

I have done that several times. Did not get an answer. Perhaps because it has to do with national socialism ????

Hi,

Where did you find it ? And what is the size ?
And a close up of the odal on the sides would be nice as well.

Personally I think it has nothing to do with a yule chest.....for the best it could be some NS-farmers/Reichsnährstand item.

well, thought you dont know the manufacturer.....?
for me it is a tourist item from this ANRI Company in south tyrol, made maybe in the 40s for german tourists...south tyrol is and was a famous holiday region...but also keep in mind south tyrol region always had german roots, actually once was part of germany and lots of people there still talk german.

Here´s another period Anri chest.

Yours is an original period piece as well, just in a different style.

Hello,

I got it from a household rescuer, from Berchtesgaden.
The box is about height x width x depth about 19cm x 38cm x 21cm large.
Yes, there could also be NS farmers / Reichsnährstand.

Best regards

Yes - the back of my chest bears their signature "ANRI" carved into the wood - I don´t have a pic at hand but is surely is there.
