DIMENSIONS:

Height – 51cm / Width - 118cm / Depth - 45cm

CONDITION REPORT:

In good antique condition throughout with some signs of age. There is natural shrinkage to the planks on the top, front, and sides, along with surface wear in places including age-related marks, scratches, dents, and stains to the lid and sides (pictured). The front also shows light marks and stains (pictured). The escutcheon and hinges are later replacements. A historic repair is visible to the right-hand side of the lid, and a later interior brace has been fitted beneath the lid to provide additional support, though it is not structural. There is also evidence of historical woodworm, now long gone and fully treated as a precaution. The coffer remains structurally solid and sound. Overall, a good example of its kind.
