A large oak bible or document box

A simple version of the traditional form, striking in its light color

Devoid of embellishment other than the application of a moulding plane on three edges of its lid and the lovely lock box with a heart.

The (later) shoes, whose outline can be seen on the underside, have been removed.

Narrow cleats have been added under the lid for stability.

Good condition and very useful
