Item Description
An understated early 17th Century oak document box telling a powerful story. It has an unusual punched and scored Renaissance sgraffito style design. These boxes were used to store valuables and has suffered a break in, not unexpected in the violence of the Civil War. It was rebuilt in the late 17th Century and given new, hinges, a lock, a stand and possibly a lid from another damaged box. The punch design on the lid is a different motif. The stand dates to around 1690.
In unrestored, 1690 repairs aside, condition
