and are LONG out ofproduction – with NO plans
to re-introduce them. The matching mahogany
bases are VERY scarce andthey were never
plentiful in the... firstplace.This GERSTNER MB52 base wascommissioned
to “fill the gap” for basesto accompany the top chests.Please enjoy thephotographs of the INTERIOR
of the chest: Fine wood and professional
craftsmanship usedthroughout !Proper green felt has beeninstalled on the top,
in the door and all thedrawers. Each of the sever drawers –with serial
number - is original to thechest, and all work properly.The hardware is all new, and functions properly.
No rust, corrosion ordents. Yes, has keys !This could easily be aman’s or woman’s jewelry
case, or display case, anywhere in the home.
I have used these cases forwrist watches,
collectible fountain pensand collectible knives.
You could also use it as a
tool chest for precisionequipment.Note on the photo’s: Please excuse
the reflections on thesurfaces of the chest.
The finish is hard for meto picture without reflections.One picture was taken in sunlight,
to show the grain of the wood.The final picture shows astack of top,
base and double base. You will of course
receive only the base inthe center.See the matching mahogany top chest and double base in my other ads.Measurements: (These are nominal, and may vary a little with the hardware)Item Depth Width height total volume cubic inches (outside)
