Title: Repo Chinese Laquered chest.
Post by: bigwull on September 18, 2012, 09:54:04 am
We are just back from a local furniture auction...and we picked up this Repo,Chinese laquered chest, it cost £36 + the buyers premium of 20%...and Avril and I a fair chuffed with it...its in immaculate cond,it measures 30in x 15in x 18in..and has a velvet and laquered interior.There is a Chinese combination lock to go with it...but we have at the moment mislaid it....Its not an old one...maybe 5/10 years??? ..or it could have been made yesterday..i just don,t know..there are no visible markings on it....so there could  have  been umpteen made....but at £36 we think its a really good buy
