Stunning Antique Gothic Revival Hand Carved Elm Wood Blanket Chest / Trunk 1750

About the Item

Great looking and patina antique Gothic trunk, made of solid elmwood. This impressive looking and practical size chest shows a number of deep and beautiful, hand carved Gothic elements in the front panel. Inside the pure Gothic front also is the antique and hand hammered, wrought iron lockplate. This wrought iron, shield-like lockplate above the Gothic window-like carved details too is the perfect one for this Medieval Style chest. Behind this lock plate is a perfect working replacement lock for which we provide a key. The large and very thick lid is strong enough to (for example) hold a couple of grown-ups (both sitting and standing) and this chest also has an incredibly warm patina. Over the many decades there have been some restaurations and replacements and together they tell the story of the life and character of this Gothic antique. This good size chest and talking piece stands perfectly strong and stable and because of its strength and condition this antique can and will be used and enjoyed for many more years, decades and even centuries to come. It will look marvelous in an entry hall, at the footend of your bed or in any other space where it has the room to shine. If you appreciate its rarity, beauty and history as much as we do then maybe you should be its next custodian. This stunning antique box too is great value for money. Especially when taken into account that perfect packing (in a custom made crate) and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 to 6 days are included in our already fair price. Maximum width x height x depth: 43.3 x 21.7 x 17.5 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish yet practical and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again).
