The overall form of the parts make me wonder if it is not a lot older?
I think either Dutch or French around 1740's.
The lock has no bridle (the counterplate inside the lock for the tumbler), the lockplate is also still curved (banana shaped)and so on.I would be suprised if this would turn out to be 1812's

A nice find all the same
