About the Item

Large oriental chest painted red, with figures. Finished in red and hand-painted to depict figurative scenes and landscapes, possibly of Asian origin or oriental influence. The chest is rectangular in shape, with a hinged top lid and ample internal storage space. The inside is made of natural wood, without dividers. The sides and front of the chest are richly illustrated with battle scenes, characters and floral elements, applied in rich colours and details. The edges are decorated with geometric and floral patterns, creating a continuous ornamental effect. The furniture stands on low turned feet, which raise its structure slightly off the ground. It has metal handles on the sides, making it easy to transport. It's a piece with a strong decorative value that can also be used as a functional chest for storing clothes, objects or accessories, making it ideal for ethnic, vintage or eclectic environments.
