    A striking Dutch Armada chest with original paintwork and fully restored locking mechanism, using original parts.

     
    The name 'Armada' chest is applied to a distinctive type of coffer, made of wrought iron strengthened with interlaced bands of the same material. Also known as Nuremberg Strongbox.
     
    They served as forerunners of the modern commercial steel safe; designed to hold bullion for the replenishment of vessel supplies, they were subsequently washed up from wrecked ships, and a lot of chests like these, still lie at the bottom of various oceans around the world.
     
    Normally 1/3rd of its size, this chest is a rare imposing sight, and would make a fantastic statement piece for an entrance hallway or reception room.
     
    Period: Elizabeth I. (C.1588-1600)
