A spectacular, antique steamer trunk, flat top trunk! This antique chest was once used as travel trunk but now it’s ready to be your treasure chest. A beautiful storage chest or storage trunk, that could become the perfect trunk coffee table or chest coffee table. A black coffee table with storage.
These vintage trunks also make a great keepsake gifts and it’s also a heirloom gift.
I do have more steamer trunks, antique trunks, coffee table trunks, wardrobe trunks, leather trunks, etc. be sure to look at my other antique trunks and chests / old trunks for sale!
This black Antique Steamer Trunk has a medieval- gothic, feel. Kind of looks like something you'd find in a castle. A great addition in any room. This is definitely one of the more ornate vintage chest trunks I’ve had, the original trunk hardware is so ornate, at least in the trunk coffee table or chest coffee table group (flat top trunks).
A very rare piece, from the late 1800’s, these ornate flat tops are pretty hard to come by!
A spectacular piece, with exceptional hardware! Newly refinished exterior; walnut stained & polyurethane wood slats, new custom black leather handles, aged black on remainder of body. Body is covered in tin. Hasp & latches work, no key. The top and front had leather strap holders, that I replaced, I didn’t place a strap, because the original was just one that ran through the strap holders, and was not attached to the trunk itself. depending on how you’d be using this trunk, I thought the strap could get in the way. if you like a black leather strap added, and even attached, message me and we can discuss the options.
These antique trunks, have endless uses, from record album storage, to an entry way storage bench, foot of the bed storage, blanket chest. they also make a great retirement gift, anniversary gift, wedding gift, birthday gift, housewarming gift, keepsake gift or just to treat yourself to a spectacular antique decor piece!
Interior is stripped and sanded, and ready for your finishing touches. These are a great keepsake gift, add decoupage, of photo copies of family photos, old love letters, sheet music, family recipes etc. it’s a blank canvas! Though it is useable, just the way it is.
The interior can also be stained, painted, upholstered, or decoupaged to your specifications, for an added charge, by me.
Trunk measures: 36 3/4” wide, 19 3/4” deep (front to back), 22 1/2” tall
