FAQs

Seventeenth-century Continental furniture is characterised by heavy timber construction, pegged joints, and geometric moulding, reflecting regional craftsmanship and utility.

Coffers of this era were predominantly built using native hardwoods such as oak, often joined with hand-forged iron hardware, hinges, and strapwork.

Authenticity is determined by hand-cut joinery like mortise and tenon, hand-adzed boards, hand-forged iron nails, and natural oxidisation or patina accumulated over centuries.

An antique coffer functions effectively as a coffee table or a storage blanket box, introducing textural contrast and historical depth to contemporary schemes.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight, and periodically applying a microcrystalline wax to nourish the dry wood.
