AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This rare small Italian chest of drawers, dating back to the late 19th century, is made of walnut and walnut crotch, specifically chosen to create a highly elegant mirrored design on the front.
The solid and well-proportioned structure rests on four original casters that now only partially slide. The front features four working drawers with original latches, while two locks are missing. The interior is constructed of alternating walnut and oak, with the drawer linings and back panels still original. The inside of the drawers was relined at a later date. Woodworm holes, now extinct, are visible on the back; the piece has, however, been treated.
Its compact size makes it a highly sought-after piece, easily placed in classic, modern or minimalist environments thanks to its clean lines and splendid frontal root.

Seller's Story
I have always been passionate about our past, knowing it is the only thing that does not cease the connection between what is and what was.
When I reached the right age I understood that my passion had to coincide with my work and so I opened a business.
The key principles are quality and love towards the customer.
