About the Item
A most attractive and elegant late 17th Century oak lowboy with a lovely natural and well developed patina and rich warm colour.
The single drawer with original oak lining and early, possibly original, brass drop handles with snaped fixings, filigree backplates and brass penny engraved drops – the engraving now worn smooth from use.
The drawer void is framed by a lovely ogee moulded border and the drawer itself has a slim outer border carved in the solid.
The drawer opens and closes smoothly, is sturdy, clean and capacious, providing a lot of storage.
The wide oversailing top of three slender oak boards with medullary rays has a shaped outer border carved in the solid.
All set on tall finely ring turned legs with original tall peg feet (the leg and peg feet turned from a continuous length of oak) and united by the original box stretcher with channel carved and shaped upper face.
Peg jointed throughout with original very small squared pegs.
Sturdy and stable, the lowboy is in very good original condition with only minor knocks and nibbles.
Really pretty, a lovely side, wine or lamp table which will look superb in a traditional cottage or modern interior.
Oodles of charm, a useful small size, sturdy and entirely usable after 330 years and generations of service – a credit to the 17th century craftsman who made it.

27.5 inches high, 29 inches wide and 23 inches deep.

Signed Original Period Charles II Oak Mule Chest c. 1665
Located in Heathfield, GB
A particularly original and beautiful solid oak English mule chest made by hand in c.1665 and with a fantastic colour and very rich deep natural patina.
Retaining its original split ring hinges and original timbers and peg joints throughout.
With twin fielded and shaped panels to the front and sides, each framed with chamfered bottom rails to let water run-off easily. The single long drawer with applied geometric mouldings and small heavy solid brass period drop handles.
This is a beautiful and usable chest – very heavy and substantial but of relatively small proportions.
The coffer sits on original stile feet which are intentionally concealed by the well shaped flared apron around the base – a lovely quality detail.
This chest would sit well within a traditional or modern interior and would be lovely as a linen chest at the end of a bed or a hall chest for shoes etc.
Marks, dings, scuffs and minor losses consistent with age and use. The lock to the lower drawer is original. The lid opens to reveal the original oak candle box. Some wooden straps/reinforcement have been added to the underside of the lid – probably in the 19th century – just a belt and braces piece of restoration which is often seen on such early coffers.
A really wonderful early example, not too big, very sturdy and usable and signed beneath the lid in very old script ‘James Reeves’ – probably the maker or first custodian.

17th Century English Oak Strong Box c. 1640
Located in Heathfield, GB
A rare English oak strong box retaining original and elaborately forged iron lock plate and lock with escutcheon cover and with the original working key.
The case with original beautifully shaped corner brackets and original carrying handles – all the hardware fixed with the original rivets.
The interior with seven oak drawers with attractive original handles, three over two banks of two, each drawer with very fine boarded linings in wainscot oak with nailed up bottoms.
These chests were used by merchants who travelled and traded. The drawers may have contained precious gemstones such as diamonds, gold or jewellery, spices or coins. The fall descends to form a desk at which to write, weigh or count. This example no doubt travelled aboard ships of the day carrying cargo and travellers around the world – ships like the wooden hulled Mayflower which took the Pilgrim Fathers to America in 1620. The strong box has probably visited many lands and carried all manner of exotic and highly valuable items. If only it could talk!
