    Found this chest in a Consignment shop in Toldeo, OH. The consigner told me he was getting rid of this chest from his father estate. The father worked for Libby Glass, and during his employment, worked in Costa Rica. His father had the chest and bed built while there. The chest was built sometime in the 1960's.

    How do I tell if this chest is made from Cocobolo.

      So I was kinda wishing someone knew something about Cocobolo. The only Furniture I've seen made from this wood in in the $5k range. Found a Bed and Desk, haven't seen a Dresser before.
