Antique oriental camphor chest. Circa 1850-1899 a VERY RARE shape of three cylinders standing on two barrel shape feet.Made from camphor wood.
Repaired and restored to a Unique and gorgeous box.
This a gorgeous medium hand carved chest,depicting sailing boats oriental scenes .Painted pure white and the carvings are highlighted with liquid gold and a touch of gold sparkle (very hard to see in the pictures but in person it sparkles when the light hits it)
Hand with deep carvings. Please look at the photos as the carvings are very hard to describe but they do speak for themselves!!!!
Inside has been lined with a vibrant pink chinese brocade silk.
This chest measures 26 x 16 15 cm(overall measurements)
This piece has been fully lacquered and waxed.
please note this piece is an upcycled antique and as such it does show signs of age it is antique and is not perfect. i.e the wood has split in the top as can be seen in the pictures.this does not detract from the overall function of the box but rather adds to the age of it.
as always any questions please do not hesitate to ask and I will reply within 24hrs.

All items are wrapped so they have the maximum amount of protection for transport(bubble wrap etc) boxes are presented with a ribbon bow and tag. No receipts are ever put in with any of the deliveries.
Packaging
All items are packaged for maximum protection for transport. I recycle all my packaging therefore I do not use my own branded boxes but I re-use old boxes along with other packaging. So I'm doing another wee bit for the planet!!!
General shipping questions?
As previously stated I do not charge extra or add extra payment to shipping costs. Delivery costs are straight from the courier as I do not add extra charges,I recycle and reuse all forms of packaging to keep the shipping costs down for customers.(costs a lot to use branded packaging)
Recycle Recycle Recycle!!!!!
All the packaging used is recycled as this fits in with my ethos of re using/restoring, repurposing and especially bubble wrap and plastics. I would ask that you also try to recycle as much of the packaging as possible to continue the repurposing ethos!
