The interior is divided into two large storage compartments by a vertical wooden partition. Measurements (read from a visible tape measure): Width approx. 47.5 inches (120.7 cm) Depth approx. 21.5 inches (54.6 cm) Height approx. 36 inches (at rear) (91.4 cm). Condition: The chest is in well-used country-house condition.
