1900s Belgian Wooden Chest
About the Item
This 1900s Belgian wooden chest is a striking piece of utilitarian history, stamped with bold stenciling that reads “E. Remy & Cie – Louvain.” Constructed from pine and framed in black-painted trim, the chest features a warm, honey-toned finish that has naturally aged with a beautiful patina. The interior reveals the raw wood grain, while the exterior retains the original rope handles, offering both character and portability. Likely used for commercial or transport purposes, this piece now serves as a unique storage solution, coffee table, or decorative accent imbued with Belgian industrial heritage.
