Description

Antique Wooden Treasure Chest Trunk – Brass Latches, Iron Wrap, 19th Century

This antique treasure chest-style travel trunk exudes old-world charm with its wood and metal construction, brass latches, and iron-wrapped edges. Designed for durability, it features metal-reinforced corners and trim, giving it a rugged, well-traveled look. The exterior shows age-appropriate wear, including finish loss, dents, and dings in the metal, adding to its authentic vintage character.

Inside, the trunk is lined with decorative printed paper, which has discoloration, water stains, and tears from decades of use. A vintage chromolithograph-style illustration of a hunter and horse carrying game decorates the inside lid, further enhancing its historical appeal. The bottom of the trunk has a patched/repaired section.

Perfect for collectors, decorators, or those looking for a unique pirate-style treasure chest, this piece offers both character and function.

Condition:

Good antique condition with visible signs of age and use. Finish wear, metal dents, and dings present. Handles are absent. The interior lining has water stains, tears, and discoloration. The bottom has a patch/repair. Hinges and latches appear functional.
