This masterfully restored Indestructo steamer trunk is a premier example of early 20th-century industrial engineering, professionally revitalized by Angelina Nikon to serve as a high-end storage coffee table. Originally crafted by National Veneer Products, these 'Indestructo' trunks are legendary for their multi-ply bent wood durability. The exterior features a sophisticated deep metallic iridescent brown finish, perfectly accented by walnut-stained wood slats and oversized tacks buffed to a brilliant shine. The interior has been meticulously stripped and sanded to a clean, usable state, and includes three original stripped wood inserts with authentic 'Indestructo' branded straps. Whether used as a large-scale coffee table or a storied heirloom keepsake box, this 37-inch wide chest brings a bold 'Restoration Hardware' aesthetic and tangible history to your home. Matching pair available; free ground shipping included within the continental US
A large, antique steamer trunk. Once a travel chest or a travel trunk, is now ready to be your storage chest, or coffee table trunk. Very reminiscent of a leather trunk, but no risk of leather rot!
This old trunk is refinished ( a refinished or refinished trunk)in a beautiful deep metallic/iridescent brown, the bent wood slats are finished in walnut, with the oversized tacks buffed bright. Rounded metal corners are done in a bronze, and the latches and hinges are their original aged brass or brass plate, not really sure what they are . New custom brown leather handles, and one side the metal parts to the handles are bent up a bit, but it’s not super noticeable. It’s from the early 1900’s so it does have some scars, here and there.
The interior, of this large trunk has been stripped and sanded and awaits your finishing touches, though it is useable just the way it is. It also has 3 original inserts with it, that have also been stripped and sanded, though the bottom 2 are super light weight They also still have the original straps, that have “Indestructo” printed in them. They could be cut off, if you didn’t want to keep them.
You could decoupage photocopies of old family photos, family recipes, children’s art, love letters etc. it could also be painted , stained or torch finished by me, for an added charge.
These antique chests and trunks make great retirement gifts, military retirement gift, wedding gift, housewarming gift. it's a
keepsake gift and an heirloom gift!
This antique trunk measures 37 1/4” wide, 21 1/4” deep (front to back), and 21” tall
I DO HAVE A MATCH TO THIS ONE
That would make a great coffee table, see it here:
