Coffee Table/Chest - Re-Purposed From Vintage Shipping Box
Only 1 in Stock!!! This was a antique shipping box someone was going to throw on the trash pile. Once I opened it, I realized it was an old shipping box for parts for General Gas & Electric in Pennsylvania. I removed the hinges and latch, and sanded the wood in order to reveal the grain. After sanding and a good wipe down, I made 4 small legs and installed them. From there I added an Ebony stain. I stained everything except the inside of the top lid where it has General Gas & Electric stamped on it. After staining I applied 2 coats of gloss poly to seal up this piece as well as bring out the beauty of the wood and stain. Only 1 Available… Before it was complete, I took the original hinges and latch…rust and all…and applied a clear to it. The end result was a very rustic coffee table that allows for storage. Measurements are: 34-1/2" wide 17-1/8" high 15-5/8" deep
