Spanish chest.
The charm is in the simplicity and the use of beautiful wood in full, wide boards.
That use of wide widths is typical for Spanish furniture.
The walls are dovetailed at the corners.
It is chestnut wood, often used in Spain; it looks a bit like oak, only its grain is more regular.
Beautiful patina.

Spaanse kist. 
De charme is de eenvoud én het gebruik van prachtig hout uit volle breedtes. 
Dat gebruik van grote breedtes is typisch voor Spaanse meubels. 
De wanden zijn gezwaluwstaart op de hoeken. 
Het is kastanje hout, vaak gebruikt in Spanje, het lijkt wat op eikenhout alleen is het regelmatiger van nerf. 
Mooie patine.
