49 x 21 x 24“ This auction lot features an antique wooden blanket chest showcasing a traditional rectangular form with a hinged lift-top lid. The piece is highlighted by its historic reddish orange faux painted grain finish on the front panel, an ornate brass keyhole escutcheon, and sculpted bracket feet. The interior opens on metal hinges to reveal a spacious storage compartment equipped with a built-in covered side till box for small valuables. The chest exhibits a heavily weathered primitive character with substantial finish loss, flaking paint, scratches, and wear across the top lid surface from decades of storage and use, making it a wonderful rustic accent piece or restoration candidate.
