Aside from the chest being damaged a bit in shipping...it is by far one of the most beautiful and well made pieces Ive ever purchased. And as an Interior Designer, thats saying A Lot!! Pretty sure it weights over 200lbs. The deep chocolate wood is stunning and the brushed brass finish, perfect for my clients overall scheme. I honestly didnt think quality like this was still out there and especially not for this price, Wow --- an all around Winner!!!
