This is a very good quality and Charles I English chest, circa 1630. The six-plank sword chest features a primitive boarded design, most likely made by a carpenter as opposed to a joiner during the early part of the 17th century. The top and sides of the lid feature primitive chip edge carvings. The front of the chest features two large lunettes, which are flanked by deep carved gadrooning fans and gothic shaped arches below this type of carving was popular on much earlier antique furniture in the medieval period. There is a lovely natural bow to the front of the chest, which is an indication of the chests age, and fact that is constructed of single plank. Interspersed along the front of the chest are rows of recessed carved ridges. The lid is connected to the base with the very old replacement iron strap hinges (possibly from the early Georgian period). There is a working lock and key with this coffer, which locks the top lid onto the base. The coffer sits on its original length “V” cut end feet, which is nice to see. Thee feet are supported by later facing spandrels. The back of the coffer features the original rough-hewn single plank back and original single plank floor. This coffer has sought after proportions not being too tall or deep. This coffer would have been commissioned for a wealthy country homeowner and would have been used to store a variety of items from weapons (e.g. swords) owing to its long narrow design as well as other possessions.
The interior is clean, dry and the coffer is practical and useable. The exterior of the coffer boasts a stunning rich oak colour patination. This is an important oak coffer having been around in the days of Charles I, Cromwell’s conquest of Ireland & Scotland and the Great Fire of London. The coffer would be ideal as a storage box in a bedroom in front of a bed.
This item would look great in a variety of rooms from the hallway, to the living room or bedroom in front of a bed. It has a beautiful rich light oak patina, which has been generated by the centuries of cleaning and care it has received.
Condition Report
The frame of the chest is original and it stands on its original “V” cut end feet. The working lock and key are very old replacements. The iron hand beaten loop hinges are very old replacements (possibly early Georgian) and the chest features later facing spandrels to the underside. The interior is clean, dry and the coffer is practical and useable. The coffer is solid in joint and ready to use. Considering the age of this early coffer, it is in very good condition and does not detract from its attractive appeal.
