About the Item
Antique chest with a design that simulates a small chest of drawers, this piece of furniture has a sturdy structure and a reddish varnished finish. The top lid lifts off by means of hinges, revealing a seat with a circular opening, originally used to house a potty. The back of the lid features a panel with a round handle, and below the seat there is a false drawer that reinforces the look of ordinary furniture. The lower front panel has a functional drawer with a round wooden handle, useful for storing hygiene utensils or materials associated with the original use. The low, rounded feet complete the furniture's compact, traditional look.
In good structural condition, but with visible marks of use, the piece has historical and decorative value and could be reused as an object of curiosity or adapted for decorative use in vintage or rural-style interiors. Two handles are missing.
