The oak has gained a beautiful, rich age related colour which is complemented by a fine age related patina, the sides are adorned with early painted'J' lettering and the top & front panel retain partial wax seals from the days when it was used to hold valuables. A wonderful piece, showing its age beautifully, would make a fantastic coffee table or end-of-bed blanket box. Approx 58cm x 78cm x 50cm. Wear commensurate with age, exterior clean & ready to use, inside could be cleaned further & has been left as found with it's layered paper lining very worn.
The trunk has clearly had a life & shows numerous pleasing signs of age making it what it is today, two'runners' (strips of wood) underneath the box have had some work over the years & there is an old repaired crack to the rear panel, none of which detract from a stunning early trunk. Any questions, please do ask (07415 154 914, John) & always feel free to get in touch for a detailed condition report.
