Item Description

Large 19th-Century Camphor Wood Brass Bound Travelling Trunk

A handsome and generously proportioned late 19th-century camphor wood travelling trunk, brass bound and fitted with brass corner mounts and carrying handles. The richly figured camphor timber has developed a warm, mellow colour and deep patina, enhanced by the original brass strapping and hardware, giving the piece great visual presence and character. The quality of the early timber and the depth of colour make this a particularly attractive and increasingly rare example.
Highly versatile, the trunk works beautifully as a decorative coffee table, an end table beside a sofa or armchair, or as a storage chest at the foot of a bed. Its scale, clean lines and superb surface make it a bold statement piece that sits comfortably in both traditional and contemporary interiors.
A striking and practical 19th-century campaign trunk, offering excellent storage and strong decorative impact.
