Malcomson Goes Wellington

Did you ever hear of campaign furniture? Maybe the President ought to look into this. This one was used by Wellington on his many military exploits, thus, its name. Brass carved corbels protected the corners. Some had short turned feet that could be removed for transport and an overlapping right side with hinges that contained a key for locking purposes. In the field, however, the chest looked much as it appears here. Used during the Napoleonic Wars, this chest is made of figured walnut and fitted with dummy drawers concealing pigeon holes and a writing area. You can see this by clicking on the picture and an enlarged second picture will appear for your perusement. SOLD
