An antique barrel-stave steamer trunk dating from the mid 19th century. Made of oak, it has a domed lid with gold painted corners, black leather strapping and original iron hinges. Each end has a leather carrying handle and the interior is painted in a sea foam green. A small repair in front has been made with newspaper and shows an article titled “Musical Blind Children of Wilson County” which appeared in the Atlanta Constitution in 1885. We have more trunks and blanket chests available. Please take a look at our other items.
