Early 18th Century Italian Walnut Low Two Drawer Chest / Bench

About the Item

A walnut, burl walnut and pine two drawer chest with inlay detail. This was originally a taller four drawer chest. It was most likely cut down to its current height in the early 20th century. Certainly a gutsy alteration. The bun feet are replacements. The locks were removed and the void filled in with pine. The brass pulls are original. This chest was used as a bench at the foot of a queen size bed until recently. Acquired from a San Francisco estate. Recently cleaned and refreshed. Italy, early 18th century.
