A walnut, burl walnut and pine two drawer chest with inlay detail. This was originally a taller four drawer chest. It was most likely cut down to its current height in the early 20th century.

This chest was used as a bench at the foot of a queen size bed until recently. Acquired from a San Francisco estate. Recently cleaned and refreshed. Italy, early 18th century.
