FAQs

A coffer bach, translating to small chest in Welsh, is a regional storage vessel produced in Wales during the eighteenth century, traditionally used to store household linens, silver, or important family documents.

Eighteenth-century coffers were constructed using solid native oak, featuring hand-carved joinery such as pegged mortise and tenon joints, fielded panels, and bracket feet.

Authentic pieces display evidence of hand-planed timber surfaces, irregular hand-cut joints, original steel or iron hinges, and natural wood shrinkage along the grain acquired over centuries.

An antique coffer can be integrated into contemporary spaces as a low coffee table, a hallway storage bench, or a statement piece placed at the foot of a bed.

Preserve historic oak furniture by wiping surfaces with a dry microfiber cloth, applying beeswax polish sparingly once per year, and placing the piece away from direct heat sources and radiators.
