A Wonderful Swedish c.1780 Stained Pine & Iron-Bound Dome Top TrunkOrigin: Swedish Period: Late Eighteenth Century Provenance: Unknown Date: c. 1780 Height: 33 inches Width: 44 inches Depth: 20. 75 inches (all at maximum) The generously sized hand forged iron bound sarcophagus shaped stained pine dome top trunk having wrought iron handles and reinforced corners, presented in its original and rather superb colour, showing an ornamental early lock plate and hasp, the double hinged interior opening to reveal a candle

or stuffed into handbags

The condition

Small holes frequent the flag but there are no tears or rips and the overall condition

A real gem

and the case is also of the period

the vibrant colours still very evident

Verso we can see the old advertising paper remnants of the ‘de tabacos de Filipinas Manila’ to one lid and to the other an ink stamp bearing similar text

with this example being no different

Depth: 17 inches (at maximum)

for although many of the species are undeniably of great beauty

which range from coal mining to hat factories

though in their infancy they imported bisque doll heads from Germany
