Description
This is a charming country elm trunk. It has a dummy front to appear like drawers and interesting curved bracket feet. It would date to the early 19th Century.
It is country made with a selection of native timbers - the main wood is elm to the top and sides, with satin beech for the front. The base mouldings are pine and the feet are beech. It is original throughout and built with a high standard of craftsmanship. The sides are joined with fine, through cut dovetail joints.
The iron strap hinges and lock and keeper are all original.
A hessian webbing strap has been applied to protect the hinges and allow the lid to hold in an open position.
The handles are later replacements
Wonderful deep golden colour.
Excellent condition throughout.
Will make an excellent small coffee table or end table for a lamp and magazines etc. ALL OF OUR ITEMS INCLUDE FREE UK MAINLAND DELIVERY.

Georgian Toilet Mirror. Delivered to Australia ..
''Breathtakingly beautiful Mahogany toilet mirror ! Delicately dovetailed drawers are as smooth as silk. The acorn finials are a treat. The mahogany has a marvelous lustre and fine patina consumate with its age.
Beautifully packed with extreme care it arrived in pristine condition. This seller is an absolute joy to work with ! Many thanks.''
Document Cabinet. Delivered UK
''A gorgeous piece of furniture. It was really well packaged for delivery and seller sent some useful notes about the locking mechanism.''
