Measurements: H. 55 cm – W. 136 cm – D. 67 cm
Period: 1836
Origin: Tyrol
Wood: Fir

Description:
Richly decorated painted chest, with a teal blue background.
On the front there are three panels, divided by turned semi-columns, depicting cups overflowing with flowers. On the two external panels you can see the name of the first customer and the date.
On the sides there are beautiful wrought iron handles, useful for easy transport, as well as floral and geometric decorations. Also on the lid there are, laterally, two quarter columns, very similar to the four on the front, and something quite rare, the original paintings are well preserved. Evidently this chest was not used as a seat.
All the hardware is original and working. Excellent state of preservation.
