About this piece

English oak coffer from the 1600s featuring a diamond-panel front and inlaid rope bands. A traditional storage chest, coffers of this type were used for valuables, clothing, and household items; given their cost, they were typically found in wealthier homes. This example reflects both utility and craftsmanship and has been preserved across centuries of use.

The escutcheon aligns with styles from the late 1600s, indicating a likely late-17th-century origin. Having endured through the Baroque and Rococo periods, it presents as a substantial early domestic furnishing with enduring character. In a contemporary setting, it serves well as a storage piece for blankets, books, or other household items.

Dimensions: 108 cm W x 48 cm D x 60 cm H

Condition: Good overall. Crack across the top lid. A section of wood has perished internally. Minor marks, scratches, and chips consistent with age and long use, noting the piece is around 400 years old.
