English Miniature Painted Chest of Drawers from the Turn of the Century

About the Item

A painted English miniature nest of drawers from the late 19th-early 20th century. This exquisite English miniature brown colored nest of drawers features five drawers with two cubby drawers over three larger ones. The crest is decorated with a scalloped motif.
