Old chest with carved torch. coat of arms or army regiment emblem ?

[francantolin]

I have this old chest made of walnut wood with a large look and key
Must come from Germany or maybe France.
Massive structure, my wife would that I throw it away but I l'île it.


Has someone already seen this ''torch'' symbol ??
Looks like a coat of arms or an army regiment emblem .

Glad if someone can help.

Kind regards

I can't help you with the torch symbolism, but you'd have to be crazy to simply throw that chest away. LOL!
