1730 domed wood w/metal straps chest or trunk

Description

Domed wood chest or trunk w/metal straps.  Interior is plain linen.  I love this piece but I have no idea if it is really from 1730 or just a decorative piece.  I can't look at the inside wood work without removing the linen.  I would appreciate any information about chests from that time period - its function - it has a very sturdy lock and key.
