A remarkable piece thanks to its beautiful rustic appearance and colorful floral panels. The chest is in its original, well-worn condition and features a lovely weathered patina that lends the piece a great deal of character. The chest has been fully inspected, treated for old woodworm damage, and finished with a transparent layer of beeswax to preserve the original paintwork. The cabinet was once designed to be disassembled, but to ensure its sturdiness, it has since been secured in place. Inside, there are three shelves that were added later. An authentic and decorative piece of furniture with a particularly beautiful patina. 188.5 cm high, 126 cm wide, 57 cm deep. See less
