Q: I have a wooden box that my mother said was a Norwegian lunch box. Have you ever seen anything like this and do you know anything about it? A: Painted boxes like this were made in Scandinavian countries. The two pieces that stick up on either side of your box are called lid latches and help hold the lid in place. Your box is probably a Norwegian picnic box or a bride's box. A Norwegian picnic box was price $495 at a recent show.
