This miniature, anonymous chest of drawers, likely made for a dollhouse, is a testament to early 19th-century craftsmanship. Crafted around 1820, the piece features a simple yet elegant design with a decorative top and four drawers accented by circular knobs. The small scale and delicate details suggest a piece meant for play or as a decorative object. Now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the "Chest of drawers still bank" offers a glimpse into the world of miniature furniture and the artistry of the anonymous creator.
