Well  -there is a secret draw at the bottom  

I have a feeling that this piece of furniture was my grandmothers in fact.

I would love to keep it to be honest, but unfortunately I'm moving to a smaller house next week and have no space to store it. So if I'm going to sell I need to move fast. Any advice on this front would be most appreciated (I'm in London, UK).

Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply hosman321,

I have one of those pictures now, the rest I shall take this evening. The top does lift up (pic attached).
There is a slight crack of the wood (visible in photo) on the closed lid.

Thanks again,
Matt

[img]Good day esteemed knowledgeable ones..

(OK enough groveling)

I inherited this lovely chest of draws from my late mother.  Before giving it away I was wondering if anyone here might let me know if it is worth selling.
I don't know too much about antiques (although my Mum enjoyed collecting - which leads me to believe that this might have some worth) and don't have transport to carry it about for quotes.

Thank you for your time.

-Matt
