Safe

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

An iron or iron and steel receptacle for protecting valuables against burglers and fire. Documents and possessions of value were protected in ancient times by placing them in ironbound oaken chests and in the charter-rooms of old mansions, but these have given way to fire and burglar-proof safes of modern construction.
