possibly Warrenton, Virginia area, circa 1800, shaped top with book-matched figured veneers opening to a finely-fitted interior, unusual inlaid skirt, tapered legs with line and bell flower inlay, 27-1/2 x 22 x 17 in. 

 Note: Recorded by MESDA, reference number S-8828, recorded October 1978. While the Mesda files record the secondary wood as yellow pine, other tests suggest it is red pine, and thus it may be Continental in origin.

Condition

extensive veneer losses and repairs, interior lacking some dividers, central lid cracked and likely a later replacement, lid with brass locking mechanism, leg attachments are slightly loose; appears to be yellow pine and other mixed secondary woods (not tested)
