FAQs

Campaign trunks were portable furnishings designed for British military officers and colonial administrators on the move during the 18th and 19th centuries, engineered for durability and frequent transport.

These pieces were typically constructed from dense, moisture-resistant timbers such as teak or mahogany, reinforced with brass corners, straps, and recessed flush handles to prevent snagging during transit.

Authentic pieces feature period-appropriate joinery, hand-hammered or slotted brass screws, original hardware with natural oxidisation, and solid secondary woods consistent with the declared era.

An antique trunk can function as a coffee table in a living room or be placed at the foot of a bed, providing both practical storage and a contrasting textural element against modern furnishings.

Maintain the timber by applying microcrystalline wax periodically to nourish the grain, and clean the brass hardware gently without abrasive polishes to preserve the historical patina.
