Ref. 025. £350.00     

A diminutive coffer, dating back to the late 17th early 18th century. Simple gouge/scratch carving. Moulded top
It has seen life and has accordingly had some rustic repairs. The original wire hinges, see the holes on the top where these were, have been replaced much later in life with conventional metal hinges Look carefully and you can see on the back plank where the original hinges have pulled out and there are 2 rustic repairs.

To the front the wood is patched where the original metal lock has been forced open and the plate has been replaced with a brass escutcheon. Front of feet possibe replacements. The foot on the left hand side plank to the back has a piece spliced in.

With the exception of the replacement hinges all of these repairs are early.
