Leather trunks remained relatively unaltered in form from the reign of Charles II right through to the reign of George II. Perhaps the most well known trunk or coffer-maker was Richard Pigge, coffer-maker to Charles II, who supplied a large number of trunks covered with 'russia leather' to various members of the Court, both with and without drawers. The coffer with its crown, triumphal palms, and the rose-flowered initials W and M may pay tribute the monarchs William and Mary although 1708 post-dates their reign.
