Miniature Chest of Drawers An early miiature chest of drawers with an old refinish and some old repairs. The original single center knob on each drawer has been replaced and the hole filled with a peg. The top, sides, and back are all made from single boards. The wood is pine, in two colors, with square nail construction, chamfered drawer bottoms and hand-cut dovetails. The backshplash is plain, and the apron has a simple scallop. This piece is in very good condition, with wear appropriate to its age, circa 1820-1850. Small chests like this are hard to find!
