DESCRIPTION

In mahogany and padouk with original brass mounts, handles and lock. The interior of the chest retains the till and has the unusual feature of decorative vents to the floor to enable air circulation. An identical but full size example was exhibited in 1986 at "Furniture from Private Collections in Arouca" at the Museu de Aveiro, Portugal.

Portuguese c. 1680
