<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mike R, post: 11543088, member: 97245&quot;]Hello everyone,</p><p><br /></p><p>I would like to get your expert opinion on this marine chest.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Description &amp; Material:</b></p><p><br /></p><p>It might be made of solid camphor wood, which is fragrant (spicy/menthol scent). It features dovetail construction and original brass hardware.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Dimensions:</b></p><p><br /></p><ul> <li>Width: 92 cm</li> <li>Depth: 50 cm</li> <li>Height: 48 cm</li> </ul><p><b>Condition:</b></p><p><br /></p><p>The wood is healthy with no signs of woodworm. I have just started nourishing the wood with oil.</p><p><br /></p><ul> <li><b>Missing parts:</b> The central brass inlay on the lid is missing. Also, 6 out of 16 brass corner protectors are missing.</li> <li><b>Interior:</b> It has its original side compartment (candle box/till) with a functional sliding locking mechanism.</li> <li><b>Features:</b> It has the typical carved wooden &quot;stopper&quot; at the back to protect the lid hinges.</li> </ul><p><br /></p><p>Could you help me determin its origin and provide a rough estimate of its value in this condition (with the missing brasses)?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you very much for your time and expertise !<img src="http://[url=https://postimg.cc/YG5nbxWw][img]https://i.postimg.cc/YG5nbxWw/IMG_20260108_174023.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/url][/IMG] <img src="http://[url=https://postimg.cc/cgxwZtG5][img]https://i.postimg.cc/cgxwZtG5/IMG_20260108_173956.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/url][/IMG][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
