<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Betsy Jenkins, post: 1679049, member: 14171&quot;]I purchased this chest at a ReStore in Greensboro, NC. It is a craftsman style chest. It appears to be constructed of white pine. It is a sturdy, heavy piece of furniture.</p><p>It was constructed with wood pegs, there are no nails or screws, save the hardware. No hinges or missing hinge sites are present. The single lid is a lift out construction with a very heavy duty latch, the bolt of which is missing. The other half of the top is affixed to the chest with round wooden pegs. There are no markings, save a couple white grease marker markings on the inside of the chest.[ATTACH=full]235764[/ATTACH]</p><p>Dimensions are</p><p>Base:</p><p>H: 28”</p><p>W: 21”</p><p>L: 28”</p><p>Top:</p><p>W: 26.5”</p><p>L: 33”</p><p>I have researched this piece extensively and can’t figure out its use. I am a collector of Arts and Crafts furniture. It could be a tall blanket chest or woodbox. It’s just such an unusual squared off shape.</p><p>Any info would be greatly appreciated![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
