Beautifully decorated

It is, and surprisingly not that expensive if you consider the likely cost of buying something modern with the same level of craftsmanship.

We have a Victorian fake medieval chest which is very nice, but only worth about £300.  Handy for keeping all the Christmas decorations in.

And in superb condition

Time to check the attic again for hidden treasures...

Time to check the attic again for hidden treasures...

I came across some song lyrics in my attic that seemed appropriate...

All began when I went on a tour, hoping to find some furniture
I followed a sign, it said, 'Beautiful Chest"
It led to a lady who showed me her best

She was taken by surprise when I quickly closed my eyes
