<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Frank, post: 448537, member: 5421&quot;]My parents bought this chest many years ago, and I have it now. They were told it was an 18th century tea chest. It is lined with sheet lead, and the joinery is solid. I think it had an inset lock originally, but the mortise has been filled in, and a hasp put on. I have no idea when that might&#039;ve been done, certainly before my parents acquired it in the 1950&#039;s. </p><p><br /></p><p>Anyone have thoughts about a more definite age, and if it is indeed a tea chest?[ATTACH=full]156657[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156658[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156659[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156660[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156661[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156662[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
