Military Campaign Camphor Wood Circa 1890

A superior campaign chest which would have been made in China for a high ranking officer or colonial administrator in the late 19th century.

This is an opportunity to buy a chest of this type at a reasonable price as it comes in unrestored original condition straight from a property and needs the writing surfaces to be replaced either with Baize or Leather. When the drawers are opened it still retains the original perfumed aroma of Camphor wood.

As can be seen in the illustration the central upper section has a pull out Secretaire drawer which folds over to form a writing surface fitted with various compartments and pigeon holes. Further images are available on request.
