As our name suggests we don't really sell any oak pieces but this beauty was just too good to leave behind. c1850 oak English coffer in really good, solid condition. Has been lightly waxed and polished. Please note square piece missing from the lid, we are sure there is a fantastic story to this but we unfortunately don't know it!
