Miniature Padlock with Trick Door, 16-17th Century. English or German.

$0.00

Rare small padlock featuring a hidden release door. Unmarked.
What sets this small lock apart is the fine workmanship at a small scale and original quatrefoil key. The shape of the key prevents attempts to use a more common round-barrel key. The construction of this type of key requires greater skill by the locksmith. This feature would signify quality and communicate the skill of the locksmith to their clients of the day.

0.87 x 1.36 x 0.57 in (2.21 x 3.5 x 1.5 cm)
