[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 1168530, member: 5066"]Hello! The style is an English 17th century chest or coffer but, i don't think the front panels are period. For one thing it doesn't appear to be oak, the carving is crude and not likely made by a 17th C. british joiner and finally the feet are incorrect, the stiles on both ends should go vertically from the top of chest to floor forming the feet with the top & bottom horizontal rails mortised into the stiles. If this makes any sense. Where are you, where did you get the chest?[/QUOTE]
