Description

This fine chest-cum-cabinet is crafted from oak. The chest is rectangular in form with a hinged lid. One short side of the chest features four metal feet, which allows the chest to transform in effect into a cabinet. The surface of the lid is engraved with the outlines of a scene of a fox and rabbit in undergrowth, while the surface of the short side opposite the feet is engraved in a similar manner with doves feeding chicks in a nest.
