Antique Trunks/Benches

Indisputably the first cased furniture, the lowly antique trunk has evolved into a magnificent possession that is prized by families across the world. Some unnamed enterprising artisan added armrests and a seatback to the trunk, and voila, the antique hall bench was conceived! Ideal at the foot of the bed, in a hallway, or as a coffee table, antique trunks and antique benches are so well established, we fully expect them to still be a decorative choice for centuries to come!
