Solid Brass Key & Original Working Lock

Over 100 years ago this trunk was beautifully crafted. It probably traveled for awhile at least and then someone painted it bright green! Restoring this one was truly an act of love because many hard hours of scraping and sanding were required to bring it back to its original beauty. (We do not use liquid strippers on our restorations. We can usually remove the paint from the surface of the wood but never all of it from within the wood's pores.) We hope you agree it was all worth the effort. The background wood is beautifully knotted pine; the just-as-beautiful staves are hardwood. We've left just enough bruises to indicate the age of this piece. The original working lock is still there along with a solid brass key. The inside of the trunk is as elegant as the outside and although this is a relatively small trunk, it has a fair amount of storage space. The handles have been replaced with nice double-stitched leather. We found this beauty near Blowing Rock, NC on one of our trunk-hunting trips. If you want a nice, interesting piece of history that will serve as practical and lockable storage, make a nice coffee table, and will enhance just about any decor then a (toll-free) call on 1-877-653-8786 or an email to TreasuredChests@oldtrunks.com will make it yours.
