Painted trunk with tower and stables, marked Olsen, Mar 1868
Painted cabinet with inset panels of Georgian rider on a white horse and a flower bouquet

Painted Furniture. The large cabinet with the Georgian horse and rider motif is a Ruth Pollock original, dated 1999. The trunk is signed by Ruth Pollock in 1998. I found a note tucked into the trunk about regarding Ruth Pollock.

These are my favorite pieces. Ruth Pollock painted them and her husband made them. She lives in Spain. She is very well respected in Europe/England and USA. I took a class from her and painted a yellow cabinet on the wall in the colonial house and a chimney in the second bedroom.

She comes to the big miniature show in Chicago to teach classes along with many other artisans. I made several things at these shows—learned how to dress new dolls.
