Description from the seller
Storage chest carved in wood with floral marquetry and a lattice grille
This type of decorative storage chest traces its origins to the European tradition of linen chests and blanket chests, popular from the 18th to the early 20th century.
The openwork lattice patterns and carved ornaments reflect the influence of Neoclassical and Victorian styles, where practicality met elaborate decorative craftsmanship.
These chests are highly valued by antique furniture collectors and lovers of traditional interior decoration for their dual function as practical storage and a decorative piece.
The hand-carved details, floral marquetry on the top, and solid wood construction make them sought-after pieces for vintage furniture enthusiasts and decorators who value authenticity and artisanal know-how.
Length: 104 cm
Width: 58 cm
Height: 76.5 cm
In very good overall condition; see photo—some small scratches and only the back plate of the chest is missing, but it is a plate that can be easily found and this does not detract from the beauty of this chest.
Fast and careful shipping.
