Gigantic Antique Shop's Display Chest, English, Vellum, Oak, Trunk, Coffee Table

This is a gigantic antique shop's display chest. An English, vellum and oak bound decorative trunk or coffee table, dating to the early 20th century, circa 1920. Unusual example with very large proportion at 4' x 3' - ideal for use as a distinctive coffee table that displays a desirable aged patina with a time worn appearance. Finished in vellum, known for its resilient properties. Bound with oak straps, showing rich caramel hues and fine grain interest. It is of such vast size, almost certainly crafted as a shop display piece. Large lid held together with a pair of Chubb of London sliding clasps — key absent. Pleasingly presentable original interior in good order, commensurate with age. Dressed with leather strap handles to each end for ease of movement. This is a fascinatingly large antique shop's display chest, with a delightfully unusual proportion. Ideal for use within a club setting or as a coffee table in the larger lounge.
