Description:
This is a fine quality antique coffer, of English origin, from the late 17th century, constructed from solid oak, with a triple panel design, circa 1660 - 1700, with some later carvings, boasting a stunning colour, in excellent condition. The antique coffer is constructed with a moulded three panel top, with a joined section below, which is constructed with butt joints to the corners, secured by peg construction. The lid opens using iron butterfly hinges, which we believe to be old replacements, to reveal a spacious interior. On the right-hand side is the original candle box, with a working lid. The interior is clean, dry and practical & usable. The antique coffer incorporates an old steel working lock with key. We believe the antique coffer is decorated with some later carvings, such as the leaf carved stiles and parts of the arched panels, were probably done in the late Georgian / early Victorian period, as it was fashionable to carve earlier 17th and 18th century pieces of antique furniture during the Victorian period. However, the quality of the carvings is exceptional and it is difficult to distinguish between this and original carvings from the 17th century. The front of the antique coffer displays three carved arched panels incorporating carved lozenges. The central panel is most elegant, featuring pillars supported by circular guilloches & rose flower carvings. The three panels are interspersed by leaf carved vertical rails. The antique coffer retains its original inset side panels, decorated with a scalloped frieze and stands on its original length stiles (feet). The back of the antique coffer retains its original rough-hewn panels along with the original floor. Overall, this antique coffer boasts a stunning rich oxblood colour and patination and is an ideal interior design piece.

This antique coffer would look great in a variety of rooms from the hallway, to the living room or bedroom as an ottoman at the foot of the bed. This beautiful piece boasts a rich dark red-and-brown oxblood colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
