Description:
Beautiful and large Tyrolean painted chest, entirely painted in a light blue color.
On the front there are three main panels containing rich floral decorations on a white background.
Shaped lowering and decorated in faux marble. Floral decorations still present on lid and sides.
Laterally it is possible to see the classic processing with "dovetail" joints. All this furniture was built with interlocking systems, without the use of glues.

Partially restored furniture.
