An Anglo-Indian campaign steamer trunk

A stunning and extremely handsome campaign style trunk or travel chest.

Classic recessed front handle. Such stylish lines and a rich colour.

Marked on the lock, we believe reading:

Ghose

Baghbazar

Calcutta

Relock factory

Metal drop handles to both sides.

Internally there is a good, deep storage capacity, with a candle style box with two small under drawers, making this a very useful piece.

Net storage to the inside of the lid.

A rare and well-travelled survivor. Just a gorgeous piece.

 

Dimensions:

All approximate

Height 51cm

Width 96.5cm

Depth 50.5cm

 

 

Condition: Where there are specific points to note we will detail these as far as possible but please be aware that all our items have wear commensurate with age and are as seen in the photographs. If you require any specific information please do not hesitate to get in contact. As seen in the images, but not limited to: plenty of wear, marks, losses and so on. Structurally sound. Very heavy. There are two strips of wood as seen in the final picture which have come off the lower edges so can be restored if desired. The right internal net storage in the lid is not functional as the frame is cracked as seen. The left is fine. Key present but the lock plate is missing. Priced to reflect these issues.
