Due to its impressive size, comparable to that of a wardrobe, this chest is ideal for use as a sideboard or statement piece in your interior. The chest is painted in a deep dark blue base color, combined with soft red panels. Within these panels are elegant C-curls with acanthus leaves. There is a date on the chest, but it is difficult to read; it is probably the year 1811, which could well be correct. The paint shows beautiful, characteristic wear, especially on the lid. Old, sporadic woodworm marks have been treated and checked. The chest has an original lock with matching key and is fully functional. A very impressive and decorative piece of folk art. 82 cm high, 169 cm wide, 80 cm deep. See less
