An absolute gem……….Impressive 19th Century Victorian ‘Coalbrookdale’ cast iron strong box chest, storage trunk with drop side handles repeating geometric relief panels, authentic and weighty skeleton key and retaining much of its wonderfully original deep green paint. The chest opens up to reveal an unrestricted interior with once again original colourways. The substantially tactile brass knob handle and raised escutcheon further enhance this piece and although quite heavy, this chest is fairly small, very neat and aesthetically beautiful.

Whether you use this entirely for its primary purpose of stowing away items of value or utilize as a coffee/side table, or both, it will make a fabulous addition to the room of choice.

Wonderfully engineered and crafted from the world renowned Coalbrookdale foundry. The substantial lock system runs and works extremely well. The patination this has gained through the years is superb and this has all been waxed, polished and sealed in to retain its charm.

Can be bolted to the floor from the inside if desired by means of two small original existing bolt holes.

Condition: Commensurate with its age and use. No thinning through oxidation. An absolute gem!!!!!
