About the Item

An exceptional and rare 16th century Gothic wrought iron safe door, featuring an advanced three-key multipoint locking system, a testament to the high craftsmanship and security innovations of its time. Such doors were commonly found in castles, treasuries, and historical estates, designed specifically to safeguard valuables such as coins, jewelry, and important documents. This heavy, hand-forged iron door showcases a robust riveted frame and prominent right-side hinges, emphasizing both strength and durability. The surface retains a richly aged patina consistent with centuries of use and exposure, though it can be carefully cleaned to restore the original iron finish if desired. When opened, the interior reveals its sophisticated mechanical locking system, remarkable for the 16th century, which remains fully operational today. This piece embodies both functional ingenuity and historic presence, making it an ideal acquisition for collectors of medieval artifacts, architectural elements, or decorative arts.
