An antique Indonesian dowry chest, hand-carved with traditional diamond and floral motifs across the front panel. Traces of the original red finish remain, adding depth to its warm patina. The chest is crafted from solid wood with forged iron strap hinges, side handles, and a small interior till.
Once used to store valuables or gifts presented at marriage, this chest reflects both functional craftsmanship and symbolic artistry. Its compact size makes it versatile today as a tabletop trunk, decorative accent, or small storage piece.
22.75” wide, 11.75” deep, and 11.5” high.
