We picked this up the other day, my best guess based on similar construction banded safes with the same escutcheon and makers plate is Victorian era circa 1875-1890?


What has me intrigued is that every image I can find for this safe that's looks almost identical - except the lock and handle are always the opposite way around.

Safes in good order, just has issues with lock, hinges are in good order so determining if its worth refurbishing and if its a quick lick of paint and lock repair or a refurbish job.
