Description from the seller
No reserve price!
Vintage decorative chest in wood and woven wicker (rattan) – Chinoiserie / Colonial style – 20th century.
Structure and base cut from solid wood with a mid/dark brown finish; front, side and top panels clad in finely interwoven straw/wicker (rattan).
Equipped with a central circular latch of oriental original type, reinforced corner brackets and hinges in darkened metal with antique patina. Top lid with a domed arch shape (dome-top).
In generally good vintage condition. Shows slight normal wear marks and natural patina wear on the wood and hardware, which adds authenticity and character to the piece. No serious structural damage to the woven wicker; the wooden backing panel at the bottom has a crack. It is not broken, remains functional, but is not at 100%.
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.
