DescriptionThis chest encompasses a rectangular form and a deep chestnut brown color throughout. The front-facing panel of the container includes several drawers, stacked horizontally. Three of the drawers feature handles in the center and incorporate glass, rectangular panels, likely to display their contents. Upon opening the drawers, smaller, largely uniform segments are visible, most likely where spools are displayed. The bottom portion of the chest reads "Eureka Spool Silk" in large lettering, while a small, circular knob sits on one side.
