Antique Gothic Blanket Chest / Trunk with Amazing Patina & Original Lock ca 1700
Located in Lisse, NL
Marvelously hand-crafted chest from the late 1600s or early 1700s. One of the things that make antiques so appealing & attractive is the fact that most pieces were handmade in recognizable styles, with proven techniques AND with natural materials that could and would stand the test of time. The longer back in time we go, the more that seems to be the case. This amazing chest from circa 1680-1720 is clearly made in the Gothic Style with Gothic church window-like carvings. With Gothic style chests of this age being very rare, we were (and still are) very enthousiastic about finding it. Put together and strengthened with hand-forged, wrought iron brackets, nails AND with very large dovetails, the master carpenter provided the techniques that would guarantee the owner a chest that would last him (or her) a lifetime. As it turned out, his workmanship, in this case, created a chest that has already served some 15 generations. This heavy quality chest is made of solid elm and wrought iron only and the centuries of usage and natural aging have given this Gothic antique a patina that is simply heavenly. The striking and deeply hand-carved Gothic cathedral-like windows, but also the hand forged lock...

Stunning Antique, Early 1700s Hand Carved Wooden Spanish Blanket Chest / Trunk
Located in Lisse, NL
Renaissance style, cassone chest. This rare and practical size chest is of considerable age and it has an amazing patina. Thanks to the natural wear it looks exactly like you would expect and want a piece of this age to look. This good size chest comes with a heavy lid that is made out of one thick, large and striking slab of wood. Over the centuries the natural wear obviously required some of the parts of this chest to be replaced or strengthened and luckily former owners have made the effort. We salute them, because it has preserved the beauty and practicality of this very old antique. In case you did not know, in the compartment with the hinging lid on the right people would keep their candles. This all hand-crafted antique and talking piece stands perfectly strong and stabile and it can and will be used by many more generations to come. It can be used as a unique coffee table, but it will ofcourse also look marvelous to the wall of your entry hall, on a landing or at the footend of a bed. This chest in fact will look great in any space where it has the room to shine. It even comes with a perfect working, antique lock and key...
