A Gothic Revival French Oak Chest, c.1880
About the Item
This remarkable Gothic-style chest is intricately carved in stone-inspired tracery and solidly built. The Gothic Revival style was popular in Europe in the second half of the 19th Century. As Europe modernized (especially France and Britain) a great nostalgia for ancient forms spread even as radical new styles, like Art Nouveau and new materials (like iron for train stations) became ubiquitous. Originally the piece was stained a more conventional dark brown but it was recently stripped and scrubbed to reveal the natural beauty of the oak wood. The chest may have been part of an altar set in a church.
