A handsome Dutch Renaissance revival chest, probably 19th century.
Constructed of sturdy oak with a rich medium brown finish, the chest features a two-plank top with a banded and beveled edge. The top is hinged, acting as a lid that opens up to a storage compartment. The front of the chest features an upper portion of beveled decorations flanking a large brass key escutcheon, leading to four metal relief panels over two drawers with Limburgish quotes and imagery pertaining to art and sculpture. The front is also detailed with gorgeous posts carved with depictions of lions and figures over textural columns. The sides are also finished with beveled paneling, making for an eye-pleasing, ornate and textural aesthetic.
Condition
Presents well overall for its age with an impressive visual quality. The right lion is missing its right paw. No keys are included. Some trims are detached but included. Some spots of checking and finish wear, but a great piece overall.
Measurements
29" H x 17 1/4" D x 25" L
