This antique brass bound Anglo-Indian military chest dates to the 19th century and is the perfect size for a coffee table.

It is constructed from beautifully patinated teak and has its original brass fittings and iron handles. The interior consists of one large space, candle box and a sturdy chain that prevents the lid from falling open and straining the hinges. This piece is a fine example of an Anglo-Indian military chest.

Military chests were used by officers of the British Indian Army to carry their kit and personal possessions whilst on tour, they were made to order and had to withstand a lot of punishment in transit.
