About the Item

A 19th century Chinese camphor wood trunk. This antique Chinese camphor wood chest features a beautifully hand-painted flower motif on it's leather covered exterior, adorn with a decorative trimming of nail heads, and brass bound edges. The chest retains its original hardware. Most of these Chinese camphor-wood chests were originally used by westerners (traders, sea captains, military men) in the early 1800's to carry tea, silks and porcelain from China to European destinations. This rustic piece of history would make a great conversation piece in an office, study, or perhaps in a sun room as a coffee table or unusual plant stand.
