About the Item

Early 19th Century repoussé Indian Lock / Safe Box A wonderful example of an early 19th Century hand crafted Indian safety/lock box. Originating from Northern India around 1820 we believe due to its style and form, this amazing example has bronze repoussé detail and an aged natural deep patination across all its surface. An important piece of craftsmanship we believe and a highly decorative object. Dimensions in inches: H 8” x W 18.5” x D 12” Age: 1820 to 1850 Origin: India Condition: Aged Aged wear across all the bronze and wooden surface s shown. With its wooden surface being worn and naturally aged through obvious use / handling over the years. Scratches, missing detail and loss of both wood and metal detail. This example does not lock however the hinges are firmly in place and the box opens and closes as first intended. Repousse work damaged and lifted in areas but mostly present. This box is over 200 years old, authentic, and true to its age, untouched as all we have done is applied a light natural bees wax to protect the wood. Remnants of practice carved geometric shapes to the inside lid as shown also.
