Discover the enduring elegance and heritage of this Antique Chestnut Teak & Brass Bound Dowry Treasure Chest Coffee Side Table, sourced in Gujarat and dating to the 19th century. Traditionally used to safeguard a family’s most precious treasures—jewellery, manuscripts, silks, and heirlooms—this chest is expertly crafted from thick, solid chestnut teak, reinforced with a robust iron frame and adorned with original brass fittings and a classic padlock fitting.
The chest’s rich chestnut brown colour, complemented by the warm patina of aged brass and iron, brings a timeless sophistication to any setting. Its generous proportions (106 x 46 x 51 cm / 41.7″ x 18.1″ x 20.1″) make it ideal as a coffee table, sideboard, or storage chest for bedding, books, or keepsakes. Expect some minor historic repairs and age-related marks, which only add to its unique character and story.
