An antique or vintage (stained pine) miniature chest of 5 drawers: 2 over 3

This item is constructed out of pine but has historically been stained mahogany or possibly dark oak. It has recently been cleaned and finished in a dark wax giving it a rich sheen

It is very secure. All the drawers are intact (these are of nailed construction)

All the knobs to the drawers are present and are identical

All the drawers run smoothly 

There are two metal hanging loops to the rear, but this chest could just as well sit on a workshop bench. It was once clearly in a workshop as the ‘STEELS’ label was in the drawer when I acquired it

It is ready to take up residence in someone’s workshop without the need for any restorative work to be done 

The drawer fronts have clearly had different finishes applied to them over time. The fronts have recently had a sympathetic finishing, but there is some differential colouring between the drawer fronts. 

Please note that this item has been used in a workshop so has dents, dings and grooves in the wood - some would call this a piece of antique salvage - it is not a piece of fine furniture. The photographs are a good illustration of the colour of this item 

This chest is sturdy. Both the bottom plinth and the top pediment are secure

Postage is just within the UK mainland with delivery being via UPS
