LOOKS EGYPTIAN AND LIKE SOMONE SPEN A LONG TIME ON IT . NO CLUE HOW OLD LOOKS TO HAVE A CINTER PICTURE , IT ALSO HAS WHAT LOOKS TO BE A STORY OR HISTORY AND SOM E KIND OF CALENDER MAYBE.
Very old trunk, really pretty details. Rough shape, but still solid.
It has a picture in the top, but it is missing part of it.
I would like to know some history if anyone has any idea, and also its worth.
I think I read something about in the 1800s these became popular because people used them when traveling and wanted the round top to try to ensure their trunk was always on the top of the luggage pile... But I am interesed in any other insight!
I saved this piece from going to the dump, I thought it looked beautful, its got some wear, but VERY restorable or shouldnt I? I do furniture repurposing, but this looks too beautiful to touch. I need more information and to what it is really? and how much its worth in as-is condition and restored condition.
