This trunk is an excellent example of an early
1880s Zinc covered packing trunk. It is an extremely rare half round design in excellent shape. It has been restored to its former glory,
without changing that which makes it an antique. The embossed, Zinc covering,
as well as the steel, have been left alone. There is NO PAINT on this trunk.
The colors you see are the original 120 year old patina. All of the wood has
been sanded smooth and coated with several coats of Tung oil. This beauty is
ready to accept your fine linins, nick knacks, or valuable memories. The worn
Leather lid lifter, and handles have been replaced with 3 layer, stitched
leather replacements. The straps have been meticulously reproduced by me, to be
exactly as the originals. The rare,
solid Brass lock works great and comes with a key. The trunk measures, 25"
long, 16" wide, and 18" high. You will not find another like this. Thank you, Jim
