18th Century Planked Oak Coffer Dated 1761

18th century
Description

A nice example of an English oak coffer dating from the 18th Century. It has a traditional 6-plank nailed construction and stands on square ends. The front panels have naively carved diamonds with floral motifs and a date "1761" carved below the lock panel .

It has a hinged lid with its original ring hinges and the interior is generally clean and tidy with its original candle box.

It is in good condition for its age and has developed a beautiful rich patina. There have been some old repairs over the years but it is strong and sturdy and there are no major damages. There are of course signs of age and use, some knocks and marks and minor splits but nothing detrimental. The locks have been altered at some point in its life and the straps that would lock into the panels are missing. The top plank is slightly bowed but it still displays well. The coffer has been cleaned and lightly polished and is ready for use.

The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
