A mid-18th-century Lombard drop-front chest, crafted from walnut and walnut burl with elegant ebonized details.

The side panels are angled at forty-five degrees, while the scrolled feet add a touch of refinement. The drop-front reveals a functional storage compartment consisting of four drawers, a central door, and a secret compartment in the inner top, ideal for storing documents and valuable items. The bronze and sheet metal vents and handles further enhance the piece’s aesthetic, while the fir wood interior offers strength and durability. There are signs of restoration and modifications that attest to its history and use over time.
