A petite elm chest finished in red lacquer, decorated all over with colourful butterfly motifs. Its gently curved lid and aged metal fittings give it the look of a miniature travelling trunk.

Compact enough for a tabletop, it works nicely for storing jewellery, keepsakes, stationery or all the little things that need a home.

 

Materials

Lacquered elm wood with brass hardwares.

  • Scuffs, scratches and areas of surface wear are visible throughout the red lacquered finish, forming part of the chest’s distressed vintage character.
  • Noticeable rubbing and lacquer loss along the edges, seams and corners, with some areas exposing the darker wood beneath.
  • Brass metal fittings show tarnishing, oxidation and an aged patina.
