Rare antique Swedish Bombe' chest in what looks like Burr Satin Birch. Apparently, it's known as Carolean Birch in Sweden. It's inlaid, cross banded & has gilt metal mounts. The wood has been set together in a kind of diamond formation, which I suppose is like an enlarged parquetry. This is a very attractive piece, with good colour & patina. I would say it dates from around the 1920-30's period.
