Re: 1802 Swedish blanket chest

What an absolutely fantastic chest. If the market was what it used to be, I would have no problem putting a price tag of $1500-$2500. Unfortunately the market isn't there. I would estimate it at $400-800 at auction and about $1000-1200 retail. Here is a comparable chest, it had been listed for $2000 and was marked down to around $900 before selling.
