Contemporary Craftsman Blanket Chest

The finish is tailored to the specific wood species to best highlight its grain. Cherry and walnut pieces are finished with a hand-rubbed linseed oil and wax, while maple pieces are treated with a tung oil and wax blend.

The chest arrives fully assembled. You can place it directly in your room as soon as it is unboxed.

Because the chest features a natural oil and wax finish, you should avoid harsh chemical cleaners. Simply dust with a soft cloth and occasionally apply a high-quality furniture wax to maintain the wood's luster and protective barrier.
