033 - The wise men coffer

This is a really lovely and charming coffer that calls for attention anywhere it is displayed. Due to this special appeal I have named it as "the wise men coffer". The sides are ornamented with several bands, the central one being an attractive renaissance panel with a grotesque mask in the middle. The cover of the box has a very attractive fretworked pyramidal structure crowned by a floral ornament. The cover of the box has a rectangular frame underneath that encases accurately in the box. This pattern is based in an old Italian design that I have restored carefully in the computer.

The coffer is designed to be made preferably with 1/4 and 1/8 inches wood or with 6 and 3 mm wood, but of course other wood thickness can be used scaling the pattern. The following table gives the dimensions of the coffer depending on the wood thickness you use:

Height Width Depth
1/8 and 1/4 in. wood 10,5 in. 15,8 in. 10,1 in.
3 and 6 mm wood 25.4 cm 38 cm 24.2 cm

Please note that this pattern is registered and copyrighted. If you would like to have it I offer it for 9 € plus shipping. The pattern is computer made, which provides total precision, and nicely printed for convenient scrolling. Please write me to [email protected] to buy this pattern or for any questions.
