Description
This deeply carved Oriental camphor wood trunk is not only extremely useful but also offers a visual treat. Profusely carved with scenes containing people, animals and vegetation on all sides and the top. On opening the top, you will find a cavernous area for storage and also be greeted with the exotic scent of the Camphorwood, which helped to protect the precious fabrics stored from insects. Standing on carved bracket feet, along with carrying handles to the sides. The polished brass-work adds a lovely contrast to the timber. On removing the Oriental padlock, and by lifting the hasp you will find the keyhole for the traditional key to unlock the piece.
Supplied with the two working keys needed.
All our prices include free delivery to Mainland England & Wales.
