Description from the seller
Antique wooden and iron chest – Gothic/medieval style – 19th century
Magnificent antique chest in Gothic style with medieval inspiration, made of dark stained solid wood and richly adorned with patinated metal fittings.
This piece is distinguished by its superb domed lid, a hallmark of antique chests, fully decorated with riveted metal bands and numerous ornate fittings.
The front also features a remarkable symmetrical decorative pattern consisting of metal appliqués in floral and geometric shapes.
Both sides are equipped with iron handles, while the chest rests directly on four feet formed in the wooden structure.
The interior, entirely wooden, offers a generous storage space.
The wood shows a beautiful dark, warm patina, accompanied by traces, scuffs, and signs of use that fully contribute to the character of this piece.
Its aesthetic strongly evokes Gothic and medieval chests, giving it a particularly decorative presence.

Width: 35 cm
Height: 45 cm
Style: Gothic / medieval
Wood: solid oak
Fittings: patinated and riveted metal / iron
Condition: good overall with a patina and signs of use consistent with its age.
