Large Victorian Camphor Wood Blanket Box Chest Trunk Coffee Table.
This beautiful antique chest originally dated from around 1880 and is of very good quality construction. It makes an ideal storage option for the home.
The person I acquired this from bought it as it is, in a local antique shop. The top has been sympathetically replaced by them, with a made to measure top constructed of mahogany faced plywood and a pine decorative trim. It has been stained to match. The main body of the box is fully original and is constructed of Camphor wood.
It features its original small brass castors to the base and original ornate heavy brass handles to the sides of the chest. It also retains its two original locks to the front of the chest.
It has been cleaned and polished only. The box is free from any major damage but does have some small scratches and marks consistent with age and use. These all add to its character and it has a lovely natural patina. It is in excellent structural condition with no issues at all.
It measures:
49.5” wide, 23” tall and 24.5” deep
