This Victorian campaign trunk would have been made circa 1870 and after a British officer got a posting to the Far East he would purchase a Camphor trunk to transport his belongings uniform and other essentials around. Camphor wood would be used as insects and moths avoid this wood, thus ensuring his uniforms would not be damaged, whilst they avoid the woods scent, the gentle camphor perfume is delightful to us.
 
These Victorian camphor military chests make wonderful coffee tables for the centre of a room, as well as being conversation pieces. It will spark the imagination of your family and friends as they try to envisage what action this has seen.
