    Default Victorian Chubb Steel plate strongbox

    A fine (and very heavy) Chubb plate steel strongbox. A very nice item and alas another of those things I should never have parted with :(

    Wow that's very nice indeed. Boxes like those seem to be quite hard to come by!

    Oh definably, I don't doubt that at all. I remember a while back on eBay, I saw a similar box (not Chubb..don't remember who made it) and although I don't remember exactly how much it went for, I remember being amazed at how much it did go for, so I remember it went for a lot.
