Beautiful Refinished Antique Flat Top Trunk with Working Lock and keys Here at Trunks-n-treasures we take pride in the trunks that we have refinished for the past 8 years. We have refinished hundreds of trunks, each one with the craftsmanship that we have learned from growing up around our grandparents watching them run and refinish furniture in their antique shop. This particular trunk is a very nice, clean refinished flat top steamer trunk from the late 1800\'s. To begin refinishing this particular trunk we took all the paper off from the inside. We then removed the canvas from between the slat boards to expose the wood underneath. This gorgeous trunk is made up of pine wood with oak slats. Once we removed the canvas we sanded all the wood and then applied tung oil as a finish. After much research we have found that by using tung oil, not only does it not leave such a strong odor as other finishes, but it also penetrates the wood preventing the wood from drying out so quickly. On this trunk are two new Amish leather handles. You will the original lid stay to help keep the lid open. The fancy metal hardware on this trunk has also been repainted by hand in black and gold . As in any trunk of this age there are a few signs of wear but that is to be expected. The interior of the trunk is very clean. Dropping down to the bottom of the trunk we have also applied tung oil to the bottom to give it a new refinished look and repainted the metal black. The size of this trunk is perfect for its use as a hope chest to keep all your precious belongings in. It would also make an excellent wine rack. This beautiful trunk would look very nice placed at the foot of a bed. It could also be used by a college student. It could also be used as a blanket chest. The size of this trunk measures 34\"length x 21\"width x 24\"height. The two of us love refinishing trunks bringing back the beauty into a piece from the past. This trunk is no exception to the rule. Rest assure by reading our positive response that you will be purchasing and receiving a trunk that has been refinished with care. While owning a trunk of your own you can enhance the tradition and legacy with your own family.
