Vintage Deluxe Mahogany Cedar Hope Chest by Bluebird

"Holy Moth-Free Fortress, Batman!"

We got a beauty here at 13909 Antiques!

If you are planning on getting married in the next few years, or, you have a bevy of Knit Goods and Linens to store, I've got a tremendous retro-item for you

Vintage Deluxe Mahogany Cedar Hope Chest by Bluebird

This is from the Bluebird Company, of Dillingham Manufacturing in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, coming from the late 1930's or early 1940's.




 And, it still has the original Blue Birds, and Company Guarantee with it!




It is a Chippendale mahogany ball and claw lowboy-style, and offers a deep, cedar-lined storarge area.


It stands at 45"W x 19"D and 34" T

What makes it Deluxe, while there are faux draws decorariting the facade, the bottom draw is real, cedar-lined, for additional storage.




There is some wear on the top (you can use a doily, which I may have some, in my Vintage Linen Collection) as numerous knic-knacs and decanters were stationed on it, but otherwise, it is in excellent condition. You may want to invest a bit, and have it professional cleaned/polished, or refinished, to bring back the original luxurous patina.

We know, that Hope Chests aren't popular with the younger generation, but this can be a tremendous storage piece for your sweaters, winter coats and clothing, towels and linens, or any delicate clothing items you have.


This is somewhat a rare item, being that this isn't a Lane Hope Chest, which an overwhelming number of them are in this area.

I have it On-Sale right now, for $385, in searching, this same model I found that it is going for nearly double the price of similar others out there, so come grab this before someone else does.
