Unlocking potential

Inspired by a friends request for a photo of an unlocked lock I remembered this beautiful lock I purchased in India a few years back. I appreciate it's old time look & how well it suits the old chest. The wooden chest with brass fittings was given to me by my parents for my 11th birthday after I asked for an old chest to put all my stuff in. We answered an advertisement for it in the paper & I fell in love with it immediately & that hasn't waned. It has held many memories for many years.
