Small Victorian Oyster Re-Veneered Collector's Chest

About the Item

This lovely chest has 4 graduating drawers with an exquisite olive oyster veneer on the top and drawers. The top features a cross banded border and the drawer pulls are brass. It measures a very well proportioned 13 inches wide, 10 3/4 inches deep and an overall height of just over 12 1/2 inches tall. This beautiful chest would make a delightful jewellery box or a place to put special or heirloom pieces. It would work well in a wide range of rooms and settings.
