Read moreEarly 20th Century Travel Chest/ Trunk Very Clean Inside
£0FREE Ground Floor Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further areas will incur a surcharge send via couriers.
A fantastic early 20th Century Travel Chest/ Trunk in a superb size. This chest dates to around 1900-1920 and has everything going for it – a really good size, superb colour and patina, perfectly aged brassware and the cleanest antique chest internals that we have seen! It has some nice features that would have clearly made it expensive when first sold. We love the quality and size of the side handles, the corner protectors and complete set of original screws and finishing washers. The inside is quite simply astounding for its age. We have not refurbished it. It came to us exactly like this. Perfect as a toy chest, blankets and throws, log box, books and magazines – you decide. It would also double as a rustic coffee table or TV stand. So flexible. A real keeper.
