Egyptian Revival Bronze Mounted and Inlaid Chest

Unavailable

Our magnificent chest in the Egyptian style features extensive wooden and bronze inlaid designs, including soldiers, chariots, and characters, a hinged lid with working lock and original key, and bronze mounts including top surmounted by a reclined Egyptian queen holding forth a dish in the shape of a duck, and bronze feet in the shape of winged sphinx.

21.25 by 18 by 13 inches.  Apparently unsigned.  In good condition, with scratches, rubbing wear and surface dirt, and scattered inlay losses on each side and top as well.  Lovely as is, it also could be restored to original condition by a skilled conservator.
