Beautiful and ancient painted chest, in fir wood, entirely painted in light blue.
On the front, inside ivory-colored squares, there are baskets of flowers, roses and tulips, in delicate colours. Still within the smaller boxes, there are weavings of red flowers in the shape of an inverted bell, tied with a bow, a typical neoclassical decoration.
The construction date is present on the gently shaped lowering.
The same panels are found on the lid, partly worn out by time.
Original and working lock.
