Long Old Rustic Pine Blanket Box

This is a fairly long, rustic antique pine box — ideal for use as a blanket chest, trunk, or even a storage bench. Currently in bare wood, it has a wonderfully aged, characterful appearance and is in good, solid condition throughout. Inside, there’s a traditional candle box on the left-hand side, originally used for storing candles separately from linens and blankets. The chest retains its original penny-end strap hinges and has supportive braces on the underside of the lid, making it both sturdy and practical. A lock is present, though we don’t have a key and can’t confirm whether it’s in working order. Carrying handles are fitted at both ends, and the back is clean and tidy, so it can be placed either against a wall or in the centre of a room. Available for £300 in bare wood, or £337 if you’d like it waxed in a finish of your choice.
