Antique Mahogany Low Long Box

Antique mahogany long blanket box, chest, coffer or trunk made around 1920 probably though possibly earlier. Plinth below and boxed style lid. Each side is made of one piece of timber: unusual in more modern pieces so this shows its age and/or quality. This had been painted at various times: we stripped and sanded it which has obviously removed its original varnish too, leaving quite a new looking finish. We've waxed it: if you wanted to use this as a coffee table you might want to wash that off the top and varnish it; wax isn't great with water.
