**SOLD**

💙 This stunning Lane cedar chest was manufactured in 1934. Full of peeling and chipped veneer, it was showing its age. To even out the surface of the body, the appliqués were removed and salvaged. Next, the peeling and damaged veneer was removed from the front, side, and top of the chest.

💙 After a good sanding, the wood appliqués were reapplied. The beautiful turned legs were sanded down to raw wood, and a light paint wash was applied to the legs and the poplar top.

💙 The body was painted in Cistern Blue, a beautiful blue with hints of gray by Mélange Paints. The sheen on this piece is just right, and the color pairs wonderfully with the light wood on the top and legs.

💙 The inside of the chest has been refreshed with cedar oil to reinvigorate the scent. The lock and latch have been removed for child safety reasons. The back of the chest has also been painted so that it does not need to be flushed up against a wall. Imagine this chest at the foot of a bed, underneath a window, or in a nook where you might need some extra storage and a pretty piece of furniture! Measures 40" wide, 17¾" deep and 19½" high. Available for pickup in Windham, Maine, near the high school.
