Description

A handsome, fine quality, and generously proportioned camphorwood and brass bound campaign trunk with bold brass carrying handles to each end. Originally used to transport officer’s belongings in the field, these trunks are most often used as coffee tables with storage in the modern home. This example is of a particularly good colour and bears the wonderful aroma of camphor when opened.
