An English Carved Oak Blanket Chest
18th Century
Height 25 x length 47 x depth 21 inches.
Property from the Estate of Paul Thomas Griffith, Dayton, Ohio

In overall fair condition. Retaining a fairly even refinished surface and color throughout. Old scuffs, marks and scratches consistent with age and use. Age cracks visible throughout. The til cover is lacking and there are some bottom boards detached, but retained. A few patches visible to the underside of the cover to maintain the integrity of the inset panels. The lock mechanism is likely an early replacement, though the parts themselves may be early and added much later. The hinges are replaced.
