    grain painted chest with panels. Paint has held up pretty well sans the top, but looks mostly pine, possibly butternut and cherry legs where I can see it. Outfitted inside with grooves I suppose for dividers. Seen that before? piece is 62 inches.

    Nope, never seen that before.
    Seems to be a mid 19th century chest adapted to store a particular object.

    Agree that slots are not for dividers. Too wide. Looks like whatever was stored left an impression on the bottom over the years. Seems kind of fancy for this but maybe table leaves?
