<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Aquitaine, post: 319076, member: 602&quot;]Hi!&nbsp; My SIL just brought this chest up from their basement to use as a coffee table!!&nbsp; It&#039;s never been painted, just stained.&nbsp; Just some plain hinges inside, which is pretty clean, &#039;ditty box&#039; inside also seems like it might have been added later as I thought the wood looked like it was a bit newer.....but I could be wrong too.&nbsp; The handles I&#039;m hoping might help date the chest....they are a cast metal I believe....of a woman&#039;s face....she has a cross of some sort on her chest....not sure if it&#039;s her hair or a crown on top of her hair.....the chest sits on 4 metal castors.&nbsp; I&#039;m guessing maybe 1890-1910????&nbsp; The chest measures 35&quot; x 17&quot; x 15.875&quot;.&nbsp; The lid is a bit larger intentionally.&nbsp; Decent dovetailing....sorry, I only got one image of that.....and the chest got too near someone who was painting with a roller....you&#039;ll see some spatter!!!!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/redface.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":oops:" unselectable="on" />&nbsp;&nbsp; It does have a nice old lock in it, but no key....I don&#039;t think she&#039;d want one anyway!!!!&nbsp; She&#039;d just lose it like I might!!!!&nbsp; There is NO writing anywhere at all in, on or underneath, anywhere!!!!!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; ANY DEFINING INPUT WOULD BE GRATEFULLY RECEIVED, and of course, as always, THANK YOU SO MUCH in advance!!!!!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]106060[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]106061[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]106062[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]106063[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]106064[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
