NORWEGIAN OR SWEDISH (TINE) BENTWOOD BOX BY T. L. KORSBAR--1994The traditional Norwegian Tine, pronounced "teen-ah", or the Swedish Svepask is constructed of a thin piece of steam-bent wood that is laced together. The sides have two vertical posts cut with notches that are used to hold the lid on. Because of the snapping noise that they make when being closed, they are also called snap boxes. To open the tine, the side posts are gently pulled apart using the flex of the wood until the lid is freed and can then be lifted off. The top of this box measures 12" across. The bottom is 10" across. The inside measurement is 9 1/4" long X 4" wide. From the bottom to the top of handle, it is 6" tall. This is the work of professional craftsman.
