The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A coffer bach is a small wooden storage chest, traditionally produced in Wales during the eighteenth century. They were typically crafted from oak and given as marriage gifts to store linens and small keepsakes.

These pieces were constructed from regional oak using mortise-and-tenon pegged joints, fielded or raised front panels, and a single drawer situated below the main box compartment with brass swan-neck or drop handles.

Authentic period examples feature hand-planed timber, irregular pegged joinery, original iron hinges, and signs of genuine age-related wear to the timber finish and drawer linings.

Its compact dimensions make it suitable for display as a accent piece on a large sideboard, positioned within an alcove, or placed beside a fireplace to add historical character to modern spaces.

Apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to maintain the timber finish, keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, and dust regularly with a dry cloth.
