Large Eastern Carved Camphor Wood Chest

Large Eastern Carved Camphor Wood Chest A beautifully decorative Eastern camphor wood chest, featuring an abundance of intricate carving and wonderful character throughout. A striking piece of furniture that would make a lovely addition to a living room, hallway or bedroom. The chest is richly carved with a fascinating collection of traditional Eastern scenes, including sailing ships, figures, animals, horse-drawn carts, buildings, flowers and trees. The detailed carvings are particularly attractive, with the contrasting warm timber tones and darker background bringing the various scenes to life. The rectangular chest has a gently rounded top and corners, decorative carved feet and a central brass fastening. The lid opens to reveal a clean and spacious interior, ideal for storing blankets, bedding, cushions or other household items. A lovely piece that is both practical and decorative, with plenty of charm and an attractive aged patina. Condition: The chest is in good overall vintage condition, with general signs of age and use that add to its character. The original metal locking pin is missing, although the decorative brass fastening remains in place and still holds the lid closed. The interior is clean and tidy. Please note that the lid does not have a supporting chain or stay, so it will need to be held or supported when fully opened. There are general marks and signs of wear to the exterior, consistent with its age and use, but these do not detract significantly from its overall appearance.
