This is an original handmade 1860 Jenny Lind wooden steamer trunk.
it has a wonderful shape that tapers inward in the middle of the box and is made from wood.
it is wrapped in a black material and held with heavy duty brass hardware which has acquired a wonderful patina from age.
the box has thick leather carrying handles on the side which are still in tact.
the box is lined with a nice textile finish and has linen pieces holding the box opened.
it measures 29 inches long by 16 inches tall by 17 1/2 inches back to front.
it is missing the small piece of the lock that hangs from the top.
there are some wrinkling to the material and a couple small tares.
displays very well, refer to photos, all angles photographed.

Insurance will be put on all items that cost over $40 before shipping cost. But insurance can be added to items under $40 with request from buyer.
buyer is responsible to file insurance claims via USPS, if package arrives broken or damaged, due to USPS's new policies the broken or damaged package has to be present when filing claims. If it is under 40$ and insurance is not requested from buyer, I will not be responsible to refund purchase for broken or lost item/items.

There will be no sales tax charged to cost of item, unless the buyer lives in, and/or is getting package shipped to a New Jersey address. Which will be a charge of 7% due to New Jersey state law.
So if you are a New Jersey resident and want to purchase an item, commit to buy item, and hold off to pay, so i can add sales tax to invoice.
Please make sure to look at all pictures very closely before purchasing, as most pieces in my shop are non refundable. Most items are antique or vintage and could have usual ware from age. if there is anything you are unsure about feel free to ask, i will be happy to answer any questions
Thank you for visiting and hope to see you again real soon!!!!
