AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Carved wooden storage chest with floral marquetry and latticework grille

This type of decorative storage chest originated in the European tradition of linen chests and blanket chests, popular from the 18th century to the early 20th century.
The openwork lattice patterns and carved ornaments reflect the influence of Neoclassical and Victorian styles, where functionality went hand in hand with elaborate decorative craftsmanship.

These chests are highly prized by collectors of antique furniture and admirers of traditional interior design for their dual purpose as practical storage and decorative pieces.
The hand-carved details, floral marquetry on the top, and solid wood construction make them sought-after pieces among enthusiasts of period furniture and decorators who value authenticity and craftsmanship.

Length: 104 cm
Width: 58 cm
Height: 76.5 cm

In very good overall condition; see photos. There are a few small scratches, and only the panel at the back of the chest is missing, but it is easy to find a replacement. This does not detract from the beauty of the chest.

Fast and careful shipping
