This 19th-century Welsh Country coffer bach is made of dark brown oak with a polished finish. The piece takes the form of a small chest with a hinged top, featuring arched fielded panels to the front, narrow pilasters, and a single lower drawer fitted with pierced brass drop handles and a central brass key escutcheon. A decorative brass escutcheon also adorns the upper front section above the panels, and the structure rests on a shaped apron. Measuring 69 cm wide by 29 cm deep by 52 cm high, the box provides a practical storage solution for household items. In a contemporary home, this traditional rustic farmhouse piece serves multiple functions in various living spaces. Placed upon a side table, chest of drawers, or sideboard, it functions as a decorative tabletop chest or a secure receptacle for documents, jewellery, and small keepsakes. The compact scale also allows placement on a desk or console table in a hallway or study, combining traditional woodworking craft with everyday utility.

A coffer bach is a small Welsh storage chest, traditionally featuring a hinged top lid and often a single drawer at the base, originating in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Traditional coffers were constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak using mortise and tenon joinery, wooden peg fixings, and cast brass escutcheons or handles.

Authentic pieces display hand-planed internal timber, peg joinery, natural shrinkage across the wood panels, and genuine wear around keyholes and hinges.

A coffer bach functions as an occasional side table, hallway storage unit, or accent piece beside seating, introducing historical texture into contemporary settings.

Dust regularly with a dry soft cloth, apply beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, and keep the wood away from direct heat sources to prevent timber split.
