In addition to being a lovely piece for a children's room, it's make a great chest for a copywriter, typographer, editor, or any typophile.

Dimensions: h 800mm x w 1200mm x d 300mm
Price: £2700.00

It is made to order so they need a lead time of three to six weeks. Since it is hand made, I'm sure other finishes are available if you'd prefer a less rough hewn look. Delivery is free within the UK, and I'm not sure if they ship overseas. Below is their contact info.
