~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

An interesting form, with three-panel front, lid, and back, and two-panel sides. The frieze is decorated with a guilloche pattern in which each circle in the string contains an unusual “pinwheel”. The iron hinges appear to be original, and the coffer stands tall on its original stile feet.

English, ca. 1680
