Nuremberg or privateer's chest in riveted iron plate.
Beautiful polychromy of birds and flowers in a variety of bright colors.
Opening the chest reveals its original ornamental plate, finely chased with four mermaids each holding a flower. Two discreetly cut hearts. An arched lever-handle holds the lid in place.
The 6-bolt locking system made it tamper-proof, with the key opening the mechanism. Small box inside for more precious items, opening with a second key.
Imposing wrought-iron carrying handles on the sides.
This chest features a padlock that is very unusual on privateer chests. This precious piece of chiselled ironwork is opened by a key with a special bit for added security.
A chest fitted with a complex lock system that served as a mobile safe. The one presented here is of above-average size and weight.
From the Nuremberg region, Germany.
17th century. Original polychromy.
