Very Well-Built, Medium Size Trunk with All Original Hardware, Including Brass Lock
This is a popular size trunk because it offers a lot of versatility. All the hardware is original and in great condition.
The rich color tone and characteristics of the wood add to its overall uniqueness and beauty. This is a beautiful piece of furniture. It’s heavier than most trunks this size due to the thickness of the wood and the abundance of protective hardware. What a treasure! This came from a family that was downsizing and just didn’t have the room.
