Signed Pops Casey Miniature Chest — Carved Folk Art Dresser
Small in scale and full of personality, this signed miniature chest by Chicago folk and outsider artist Casey Lewandowski, known as Pops Casey, brings artistic expression to a familiar furniture form.
Four working drawers feature golden yellow fronts decorated with freely carved waves and irregular patterns. Their warm color contrasts beautifully with the reddish-brown case, while round wooden knobs, a curved backsplash, and a shaped apron complete the miniature dresser’s silhouette. Incised decoration continues across the sides and top.
A wonderful piece for a tabletop, bookshelf, or vanity, with useful drawers for jewelry, small keepsakes, or collected treasures.
