11" Portable British Campaign Chest- Antique Vintage Style

11" Portable British Campaign Chest- Antique Vintage Style

This unique, antique reproduction of a British campaign chest is the same style used in 1700s-1800s. Campaign chests were designed to be packed up and carried on the march and have been used by traveling armies since at least the time of Julius Caesar. They are more commonly associated with British Army officers, many of whom had purchased their commissions. British officers of high social position in the Georgian and Victorian periods (1714–1901) often carried high-quality portable campaign furniture. Our antique reproduction portable campaign chest features a removable 2-compartment shelf exposing a middle storage compartment underneath. Two smaller bottom drawers for additional small storage. A brass padlock-ready latch, drawer pulls and top lid handle add to the detail of this excellent looking piece. Made of durable mango and teak wood, beautifully mahogany stained and finished with beeswax. Makes for an outstanding, unique gift item or complement to similar decor. NOTE: This is a NEW, but distressed (worn-aged) antique reproduction. Color and appearance variations and imperfections are inherent in the manufacturing and enhance the distressed beauty and individuality of each box so that no two are exactly alike. • Outside measurements: 10-1/2" x 11" x 6-1/4" • Removable, hidden 2-compartment (each 4" x 4") interior tray with full size storage underneath (9" x 5-1/2" x 2-1/2") • Two bottom, slide-out drawers feature compartments measuring 4-1/2" x 3-1/4" • Brass latch, drawer pulls and top lid handle • Made of teak and mango wood
