AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
No reserve price!
Neogothic-Style Carved Wood Chest.
Medium-sized solid wood chest, showing a pronounced influence of Gothic Revival (Neogothic) style.
The sloped lid (seat- or reliquary-type) is decorated with three hollowed triangular panels with trilobed tracery. The front face features a textured frieze decorated with a blind arcade of pointed arches (ogival).
Resting on rectangular-section feet integrated into the frame.
It presents a central lock escutcheon and rear hinges in wrought iron / darkened metal of artisanal manufacture.
It shows natural wear to the wood patina and slight signs of use due to age, which give the piece character.
The locking mechanism works very well.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
