Antique Oak Candle Box - dated 1752, for sale Opus Antiques UK

It has both lovely carving to the front sliding lid and also stamped decoration to it. It even has the original iron metal locking plate to the reverse of the lid which slots into the base, where originally it would then been locked, to protect the precious contents, probably candles,( beeswax ones were very expensive and were for the rich , churches or for special events), now some string or an old peg would suffice.
