Florentine Italian Chess Board And Chest (Pre-1970)

An antique Italian Florentine hand-carved chest and folding chess board, purchased by the current owner in 1970. The chest and board are intact with no cracks. A key is not included. Total weight is 6 pounds, with box length at 15 inches. This is an exceptional and very rare find, one that will not be easily found elsewhere. A few Marchi boards alone without the chest and in poor condition can be found for $400 to $500. Some boards are currently on eBay. Note: the chess pieces did not come with the board, and are of no value. They are Spanish pieces from the late 1970s, however one piece is missing and was replaced with an odd piece pawn. If shipped, it will be secured with bubble wrap before boxing. I am open to offers. If in cash or Zelle, I am asking for $900.
