<p>[QUOTE="TerriLynn, post: 745683, member: 10954"]The boards on the back and top are single boards. The architectural panels look nailed on and not glued. I just assumed this was a PA Dutch chest and wanted some opinions on what to do with it. Regardless of who made this, when it was made, or where it was made I think this is a beautiful piece and I would like to preserve it. I have spoken with rosemalers and they do not believe that the paint looks odd as it would have to have been treated to prevent tannin bleed through. </p><p>How would I go about cleaning this? I do have wax, but I don’t think that will fix the chipping paint from sitting out in the rain. Any help would be appreciated!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
