About the Item

This rare 19th-century box chair presents a truly distinctive silhouette, defined by its unique corner design and timeworn character. Crafted with both artistry and practicality, it features a cabinet door that opens to reveal hidden storage beneath the seat—an ingenious detail that adds both functionality and intrigue. The richly aged patina and beautifully worn wood highlight decades of history, lending the piece authentic charm and presence. Perfect for collectors or antique enthusiasts, it offers a conversation-worthy blend of utility and sculptural appeal. Wear is consistent with age and use, further enhancing its character. The cabinet door does fall slightly when swung open due to the weight and original hinges, yet it remains fully functional and usable, preserving the chair’s integrity and historic craftsmanship.
