19th Century Padouk Campaign Trunk

19th century
Description

A superb 19th Century padouk campaign trunk with original twin brass locks, fittings and substantial brass handles. The inner tray lifts out to reveal an exceptionally clean interior. The planked top is inset with the brass initials, W.S of the original owner, possibly an eminent figure who travelled to India and distant parts of the Empire on government business or military campaigns!

The condition is very good, there are a few marks to the top and a very small piece missing from the side of the tray insert. The colour and patina are excellent. Today this piece offers many uses in the modern home, either as a coffee table with extra storage or as a bedding chest.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
