It does seem to be an old storage chest on legs, a great piece of furniture. Where are you from, there were regions where these were made ? If you are from Canada there are books written on these items.

I have no idea -- only thing I would think of is, as said above by BLADERUNNER: ??

~ Entry Seat for sitting on to put shoes on / storage chest for Shoe polish or stuff??

It is neat!!

I would venture to say you have a dough proving bench. Not an antique but certainly vintage.

If fhrjr2 means a proof bench or box, I agree. Very nice piece!
