Unique miniature blanket chest dating to the late 18th to early 19th century reflecting Pennsylvania flavor. Nice curved lower front apron along with a contemporary custom watercolor painting created by folk artist “Stacy Enoch” that evokes a floral motif seemingly sprouting from an urn accented by birds.
There are a couple areas where the side panels on the chest are missing revealing the dovetailed feature. Front panel is a replacement for the right hand side that has been antiqued and color matched to the existing surface. Wood loss along with scratches throughout.
Inside reveals a till on the right. Left hinge is backed with an added piece of wood to secure the lid to the body. Most likely original lock. However the lock keeper is missing. A couple exposed nails can be found underneath. Rich patina along with corner dovetailed features makes for a special piece. Displays well!
Chest measures 16 ¾” across the top trim, measures 16 ¼” front middle section, stands 9” tall, measures 8 ½” deep (top trim) and measures 8” deep (middle section).
~Freight (Standard Mail) included, however Insurance is optional and can be purchased @ checkout ~ within the continental U.S.
