Description from the seller

Walnut Solid Wood Tall Chest with Hidden Compartment - Mid-Century (60s/70s)

Refined cabinetmaker-made tall chest dating from 1960-1970. The piece is entirely crafted in solid walnut wood, a material that provides an extremely solid structure and a warm, deep grain, typical of high-quality artisanal production of those years.

The distinctive feature of this piece is the presence of a hidden “jewelry” compartment that disappears, located just beneath the upper surface. This cavity is protected by a concealed opening mechanism, ideal for discreet safekeeping of valuables or confidential documents.

Total Dimensions:
Height: 100 cm
Top surface Width: 125 cm
Top surface Depth: 54 cm
Drawers configuration:
2 Upper Drawers: 40 x 44 cm (width x depth) | Height: 8 cm. Perfect for small objects or stationery.
3 Main Drawers: 89 cm (width) x 44 cm (depth) | Height: 16 cm. Offer generous capacity for linens or garments.

The piece presents in good vintage condition, with normal signs of wear consistent with its age and use, underscoring its authenticity. The mechanism of the secret compartment is fully functional.

The furniture will be packed with materials to ensure its integrity during transport. Given the size of the solid wood piece, in-store collection is preferred.
