Antique Wood Trunk with Brass Studded Decoration and Side Handles
About the Item
This large antique trunk is distinguished by its bold metal appliqué, presenting a striking blend of practical craftsmanship and ornamental appeal. Constructed of hardwood and reinforced with hand-hammered brass straps and studs, the piece is built for durability while offering a strong decorative presence. The front panel is adorned with a rhythmic pattern of brass diamond and floral-shaped motifs, each fixed in place with domed rivets, creating a geometric grid that adds visual texture and subtle shine. The lid is similarly reinforced, with additional metal detailing and a shaped escutcheon over the keyhole, contributing both structural integrity and stylistic flair.
A pair of flush brass handles, fitted to the sides, make the trunk more easily movable, while the interior offers ample storage space, whether used for linens, seasonal items, or keepsakes. The aged brass and rich patina of the wood lend warmth and authenticity to the piece, making it a versatile addition to both traditional and eclectic interiors. It may serve equally well as a coffee table, bench, or end-of-bed storage in a bedroom or living space.
