Ave!

Key, Roman, Chest or Cabinet, c. 1st-3rd Century, WOW!

Copper alloy; 90mm/67.1gm!

Con/ Small break on the business end, otherwise, As Fabricated; green patina, cleaned and waxed.

Seller's Note/ The lock smith, who crafted this spectacular and certainly expensive key, went the extra mile by adding extensive raised fretwork about the handle. Such large-sized Roman keys could have been used for chests, cabinets or even interior doors.
