19th Century French Iron Safe
About the Item
Originally used as a safe or strong-box, this antique iron trunk remains a trustworthy vault for treasured possessions. Made in 19th century France, the surface of the metal has aged to a dark, velvety patina, giving the trunk an air of mystery. An intricate cast-iron rosette conceals the keyhole, which opens with an ornate key. Wrought iron drop handles aid in lifting the hefty coffer —the weight of the deep lid is designed to protect precious objects without fail.
