Joseph Heinrichs for Shreve & Company "14th Century" Silver Service Chest c1904. A massive and heavy silver service chest, likely custom ordered by a client from Shreve to house a 12 piece service of 14th Century silver as the copper straps are done in the pattern.
Shreve would have ordered from Joseph Heinrichs who crafted objects for major retailers across the country, they worked in oak embellished with hammered copper and silver rivets as seen here. The top lifts open on hinges to reveal a large gallery for service pieces with the original platforms and red felt finish. Each of the four drawers also contain the same finish work, yet all of these can be removed if you would like to store objects like tiles, metalwork, woodblocks etc. The hammered copper is applied as top hinges and a handle which is signed SHREVE & CO, a D monogram on a central copper panel, copper side handles, copper finger pulls on each drawer and lower copper corner protection cushions. The oak is in excellent condition and appears to be an original finish, the copper retains the original patina and all the large hammered silver rivets are intact.
A masterwork of the Arts & Crafts movement and likely the only known example. 28"w x 20"h x 21"d.
