Description
This beautiful tråg, Swedish for trough, is a simple, clean example of 18th century of Swedish folklore. It shows the handiwork that it cost to make it in a traditional Scandinavian style. With its historic details, this trough mixes well with modern spaces and design to create an interesting and charming style.
A manger or trough is a rack for fodder, or a structure or feeder used to hold food for animals. The word comes from the Old French ‘mangier’, from Latin ‘mandere’. Mangers are mostly used in livestock raising and generally found at stables and farmhouses. They are also used to feed wild animals, e.g., in nature reserves. Here, the material and its shape, which is generally described as ‘primitive’ style, is not the work of a designer, but a woodworker who most likely crafted this piece for strictly functional reasons. The lack of ornamentation testifies of this role, and is a feature that remained at the core of Scandinavian design to this day.
This historical trough has marks of wear which make it unique. These marks show that nearly 300 years ago, this piece was actively used somewhere in Sweden. It naturally has the rustic charm that many producers try to recreate nowadays. Thanks to this, it can stand out in a modern interior to add not only visual, but also historical interest to the space.
