I keep most of my collection inside a Victorian Era gentleman's chest. They come in a wide array of designs and layouts.  Mine rests on four tall chair style legs. Mine has two door cabinet front with an open cavity for storing sundries.  Beneath that is a bottom drawer for things like hand tools. The top folds open with two doors and is a drop in design (Like a Doctor's bag) and shows off tiered shelving, which can be pulled forward to reveal a hidden stash space. Not very big, but it's quite nice. Has antique green milkglass in it, too.

Just taken. It's a bit messy and doesn't have any of my SAK's in it. But you get the idea. The right lid needs it's hinges replaced and some major TLC on the wood front where it's fractured. My Mother found it for me in an antique store. Circa about late 1890's.

I think my Victorian Gentleman's chest goes well with my avatar, indeed.

I should find a way to splice in a Wood Chuck Hard Cider bottle instead of a wine bottle, though. I guess like hard cider makes me a....Victorian Era refined top hat wearing lumberjack maybe?

Very Nice display. What are the dividers in the drawers made of? Did you make the dividers?
