Small Antique Early 18th Century German Oak Paneled Trunk or Coffer
About the Item
This small table trunk was made in Germany in the early 18th century. Both front and lid have two flat recessed panels with molded trim. It has the original forged steel keyplate, lock, and hinges. On the interior, there is a small candle box. The coffer rests on two sculpted feet. It was completely made in quarter sawn oak with a beautiful grain pattern. . Quartersawn is a more time-consuming and waste-producing - and therefore costly - process of cutting the lumber as opposed to flat sawn oak. The piece of lumber is rotated after each cut to ensure that the growth rings intersect the face of the board at or near a 90-degree angle. The result is an intricate grain pattern, unlike flat sawn oak.
The coffer has a rich and warm brown color with deep gloss combined with great patina. The piece is in very good authentic condition and is solid and ready for use.
