Original Vintage Bent Steel Milners' Safe.
A rare Vintage safe from the world renowned Milners'.
We bring to you this very rare excellent condition Milners' Safe Co LTD Patent safe made from 10mm solid bent steel plate in around the C1940's-1950's.
This lovely safe features the original manufacturer's solid cast brass polished plate of 'MILNERS' SAFE COMPANY - LIMITED - LONDON & LIVERPOOL', Complete with a painted black knurled relief. The fantastic original solid polished brass handle reminds us of a bolt action rifle as the mechanism is solid and has a satisfying latch action in a smoothly working order. The external Milners' double patent powder proof lock is working smoothly with 2 keys complete with the original polished brass keyhole escutcheon. The lovely cast escutcheon has the words 'MILNERS' SAFE POWDERPROOF SOLID LOCK LIVERPOOL & LONDON' which pivots, covering the 2 stage keyhole.
We have sympathetically restored this safe from bare metal and have restored the paintwork to its original former glory whilst maintaining original character and some slight metal patina. We have also fully serviced the robust locking mechanism of this safe and oiled the door hinges. The spectacular brass work is completely original and we have carefully polished it to a lovely sheen.
Inside the safe is a smaller secure locking jewellery drawer with the original Milners' branded 5 lever working lock with 2 keys complemented by a polished brass dropper handle with the name Milners' stamped into the cast. The safe is also complete with the original Milners' transfer to the back of the door which reads 'MILNERS' SAFE Co.LTD LONDON & LIVERPOOL'. This safe is ideal for storing important paperwork, house deeds, birth certificates, passports, cash, jewellery or anything else of value and is obviously rather safe.
This safe would look fabulous in a loft style apartment or vintage themed home and would certainly be an interesting talking point for guests. This item could also be used as a small coffee table with storage.
