<p>[QUOTE="Doug Ketcher, post: 9515842, member: 78526"]Good Day All, I recently purchased this small, beautiful chest which was detailed to me as, "Asian Tansu Chest". It's 21 inches wide (w) x 15 deep (d) x 24.5 inches tall (h). Not sure as to type of wood, but the hinges and decorations appear to be brass and attached with rivets. Additionally, there are two drawers on the inside. I searched online and found several that resembled mine, but nothing exact. Additionally, is there a way I can determine if this is a real chest from decades ago or a facsimile made a couple years ago? Any insights into age and possible origin would be MUCH Appreciated! Thanks for looking!!! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[ATTACH=full]451459[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]451460[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]451461[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]451462[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]451469[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]451470[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
