Even though screws, nuts and bolts are found in many antique trunks that have been repaired or restored and in modern trunks, trunk nails and tacks are the way in which they were originally constructed.

Trunk nails are more unique because they get bent or curled over on the inside of the trunk making a sturdier piece.
