17th Century Lakeland Coffer

An incredibly rare 17th Century Lake District Coffer with the name Ann Harrison expertly carved into the top rail and the date of 1687. The panels carved with interwoven Celtic pattens and to the centre of the bottom rail are the initials W H. The bottom boards and top have been replaced probably during the Victorian era, the hinges are of that ilk and are stamped Baldwin Patent. A historically interesting piece of Lakeland Furniture.
