Product description
Old wooden chest, probably a shepherd's chest, dated circa 1900. Its origin remains uncertain: it could be Alpine or come from Eastern Europe (Transylvania). It is a regional artisanal work, full of charm.
The front is engraved with floral motifs and arabesques. The domed lid is also engraved and closes with a beautiful wooden peg system.
The chest is entirely assembled with pegs, by joining planks inserted into each other and into grooves. Nothing is glued. It has retained its patina and its old varnish.
It is in good general condition for its age, with marks of long use. We note:
- numerous woodworm holes, and quite attacked areas on the feet; the whole is stabilized and has received preventive treatment against pests;
- old repairs with wood paste;
- the lid does not stay open on its own;
- inside, an old trace of red wax remains.
Dimensions: 69 cm (76 cm with the lid) x 46 cm x 37 cm (45 cm with the lid).
Careful packaging. I answer all your questions regarding the items and their delivery.
