Title: Antique 18th Century French Provincial Oak Coffer Chest
Description: Antique 18th Century French Provincial Oak Coffer Chest


A handsome and highly decorative 18th century French provincial oak coffer of impressive long proportions, retaining excellent colour and rich period character throughout.
The front formed with four deeply moulded fielded panels, each centred with a stylised carved flowerhead within shaped reserves and further enriched with brass stud decoration.

The substantial three-plank top opens to a generous storage interior, the underside retaining old pegged construction and historic timber repairs consistent with age and use.
Raised on integral stile feet with shaped cut-away brackets, the chest displays the robust craftsmanship associated with provincial French country furniture of the period.

The oak has developed a deep, warm patina over centuries of use, with age-related wear, surface marks, shrinkage to the top boards and old repairs all contributing to its authentic appearance and character.
