Oriental trunks and chests
Oriental trunks and chests are incredibly popular with our customers and it’s not hard to see why as these versatile pieces of furniture look stunning whilst being very much at home in modern interiors. Ideal for use as practical storage or as coffee tables, side tables, bedside tables or even occasional seating, choosing an oriental trunk is a wonderful way to bring a touch of Chinese-inspired elegance into your home.
Our collection of antique Chinese trunks is wide and ever-changing. All of the antique pieces we sell are carefully chosen by us for their quality and original charm. We work closely with dedicated and highly experienced suppliers in China who source the very best pieces for us to ship back to the UK.
Every antique item we sell is lovingly restored in China by experienced craftsmen who are highly skilled in traditional joinery techniques and carpentry. They take great care to restore items to ensure that they are suitable for modern living, but without losing any of their rich patina and unique appearance.
Choosing an antique oriental trunk is a wonderful way to add a unique touch of history to your home. In China, trunks and chests were traditionally used to store a wide range of items, from important documents and clothing, through to the trunks used by opera troupes to store costumes and props when on tour. You’ll find that our range includes pieces such as these, along with blanket boxes and travel chests once used by merchants.
Newly made storage trunks
Alongside our antique trunks we also have a wide range of superb quality newly made trunks, chests and boxes. Many are available in styles made to replicate original designs, with stylish pieces in a beautiful selection of luxurious finishes, warm colours and wood tones. Offering the perfect way to enhance your home, our range of trunks and chests are ideal as practical storage, or for use as eye-catching side tables, coffee tables and more.
