Strong Box Pirates Chest: With Lock Box, Hidden Compartment

By customer's request, this pirate's treasure chest features an additional, hidden wooden lock box inside for storing your most valuable "pieces of eight".

At ArtFactory.com, we specialize in designing and building custom furniture based on designs from history. These are not reproduction quality products, but are original works of art built using the same techniques and materials that were used to construct the originals. This strong box pirates chest is no exception, and is designed in a true old western style. The main body is constructed with mortise and tenon, peg and dowel construction, and as shown is made from thick, solid cedar cypress. That means genuine, full length timber, never particle boards, laminates, or veneers. When we say wood, we mean "The Genuine Article". This quality of materials and construction makes this a treasure chest that is truly seaworthy.

The hand forged, iron belting, handles, and locking mechanisms are meticulously precision fitted by the hands of our master blacksmiths using hammer and anvil. The hand forged solid iron corner fittings solidify the chest to make a true strong box. Blacksmith forged wrought iron rivets provide additional strength and durability. The handles are also solid, hand forged iron, and are functional to be used to lift this heavy chest. Inside, by customer request, is a hidden compartment that drops down when a bolt (disguised as an ordinary iron clavos) is removed from the side. There is also a smaller locking wooden safe box inside. The antique style lock is a historically accurate design, and functional with working key. When opened, the lid is held by a strong locking hardware system. This wooden strong box storage chest is inspired by the treasure chests found on pirate ships in centuries gone by.

This strong box pirates chest is finished inside and out using a many step open grain color infusion process. These finishes are hand rubbed, with curing times between each process. This includes multiple steps to infuse the stain colors into the grain of the wood. Additional, multiple processes of lacquer, waxes, and oils allow the finish to be part of the wood not just on the surface. This allows for by simply cleaning with oils to create a natural patina that will improve in appearance over time.
