In the black room one can see the blackened high ceiling with soot-covered beams in its upper part. These are traces of the former chimneyless smoke removal system, visible even though the walls were later covered with a layer of plaster on wooden boards to 2/3 of their height and painted white. The floor is wooden and there is a kitchen stove with a chimney called ‘śparchet’ with a cauldron for hot water. In addition to the typical equipment found in homes at the turn of the 20th century, the homestead has a small shoemaker’s workshop with stools, lasts, a sewing machine and various tools such as little anvils, hammers, awls, files, whetstones, fragments of leather and, of course, various types of footwear. An interesting fact is that the Piekielnik village where this cottage comes from is located at the border of Orawa and Podhale and, even though elements typical for Orawa are visible here, the furnishings of the white room was also influenced by the folk culture of the Podhale highlanders, their language, customs and outfits.
