This distinctive blanket chest base features sturdy square-head nail construction and is finished in a rich blue paint showing through to a deep, warm underlying wood patina. The compact storage piece measures approximately 15 3/8 in. H x 28 1/4 in. W x 17 in. D, retaining wonderful early character while noting that it is missing its lid/cover, lock, and main hardware (with minor remnants of the original hinges remaining), alongside expected surface wear, paint loss, and general weathering consistent with its age and history.
