This painted East European chest, probably Romanian but possibly Hungarian, is in need of a new home. It is 3ft 3in wide, 1ft 10in deep and 2ft 9in high (99cm x 56cm x 84cm). Members who went on the Transylvanian trip in 2012 will remember seeing similar examples. This type of chest was still being made in the 19th and 20th centuries.
The owner, Jill Robson, would be happy to pass it on as a gift to a suitable home. She does not want it to go back into the trade.
Any member interested in acquiring the chest should contact Jill Robson on 01433 620350.
