Intricately carved front, panelled sides and back with a half lift up lid. A lovely honey colour, well worn, all original, one back foot has been repaired ( secured back on ) An alternative to an oak coffer….obviously lighter in colour and would look good in either a period or contemporary home.
A delightful chest and small proportions.
