Campaign-Era Iron-Bound Wooden Trunk
About the Item
Featuring iron bindings, hinges, handles, and latch as well as plank wood construction. Resting on raised feet.
Campaign-era trunks and coffers were the travel items of British military officers who bought and commissioned them for their campaigns abroad to India and Ceylon (The Raj); indeed, the whole of the British Empire. The officers, being predominately from the upper classes, were accustomed to a certain standard of living and found it unthinkable to travel without their necessaries.
