About the Item

At some time in its long life somebody decided to paint this trunk a nice powder blue. From the wear on that coat of paint, it looks like it was a few decades ago. The box itself is all dovetailed with sturdy iron carrying handles and an iron escutcheon plate. The top lifts on iron strap hinges to a deep storage well with a lidded candle box on the upper left.
