Description from the seller

Home pickup only

Item located in Olgiate Molgora, province of Lecco

Antique tall chest dating from the second half of the 19th century, characterized by a sober style linked to the Luigi Filippo period or late empire.
Main features:

* Upper surface: Carrara white veined marble slab, a classical element common in Italian and French 19th-century chests to protect the wood beneath.
* Construction: Three linear drawers configuration with knob metal or wood handles and central slots for the locks.
* Wood: Dark, warm-toned wood, presumably walnut, very popular in furniture production of the era.
* Base: Frontally supported by turned feet (also called "onion" or "rocchetto" feet), a construction detail typical of the Central-Northern Italian artesanal tradition (such as Lombard or Tuscan chests).

Disassembly and transportation to be arranged by the buyer
Item located in Olgiate Molgora, province of Lecco, on the first floor, 17 steps of a wide staircase.
Covers and cardboard to protect during transport are recommended.
