This is an antique that belonged to our Grandma
It was likely passed down through the family, she was a descendant of the original King Family from here in Bristol
We are willing to part with this as no one in the family has the ability to properly display and protect this piece of history
The Trunk is in good condition especially considering its age, as far as we can tell there is nothing missing from when it was original.
Someone at some point wrapped all the shelves in contact paper where as it appears the original trunk it appears was bare wood.
There is rust on some of the latches but as you can see in the pictures the glass is still original and intact, the trunk is solid and sturdy.
As you can see in the last picture, there are two of the original leather handles that are still in the trunk and one more that appears to be replicated.
If no buyers are found we will store it till a later time or put on loan to a historical museum.
