This is an exceptionally handsome and large Vintage Storage Caddy distinguished by its unique scalloped silhouette, rich color, and captivating wood grain. The piece is crafted from solid wood, likely Sheesham (Indian Rosewood), which features an incredibly active and striking wood grain that gives the chest depth and character. The highly decorative profile, with its scalloped and curved edges on the lid and base, is reminiscent of Rococo or Chippendale-style furniture. The caddy has a desirable vintage age (likely mid to late 20th century) and is complemented by rustic, matte-black Aged Iron Hardware, including decorative corner brackets, functional hinged carrying handles, and a classic locking hasp on the front. This unique chest is perfect as a decorative storage solution for documents, keepsakes, or as a stylish accent piece for an entryway or bedside.
Disclosures: Hardware shows signs of age and rust. Large checking or compression crack on one side of the box. Common with aged wood. Watermark type staining on top of box. General knicks, scratches and dings to surface.
