Description

A superb 17th-century Welsh oak coffer from the Gower Peninsula, with a richly carved front displaying the distinctive decorative tradition associated with furniture from the Gower region.

The coffer retains attractive ebonised decoration, providing a striking contrast against the wonderfully aged oak. The top is particularly fine, constructed with four beautifully fielded panels and retaining its original pin-and-loop hinges.

Raised on stile feet, with characteristic hooded ends, the coffer has excellent proportions and a strong architectural presence.

Of particular note is the exceptional surface throughout. The oak has developed a superb deep colour and rich, untouched patina, while the panelled back retains a wonderfully dry, crusty historic surface that speaks to the coffer's considerable age and authenticity.

A highly decorative and evocative piece of early Welsh vernacular furniture, with strong regional character and a particularly appealing untouched appearance.
