A stunning large & impressive antique flat top steamer trunk by the renowned Eagle Lock Co. Terryville USA, circa 1890. This company was at one time the largest cabinet lock & trunk maker in the world. The quality is evident, with the exterior showing extensive zinc plate bindings and wooden laths all neatly riveted for strength and style. The canvas fabric and leather strapping has developed a wonderfully consistent colour and patination that only usage and time can create. This piece, all brought together by the heavy and substantial, circular brass lock and locking plate that draws you in.

Notes, comments and condition: Wear is only commensurate with its age and is overall superb. Please see all photos and/or contact for more information. The substantial lock with engraved makers name, Eagle Lock Co, Terryville, USA, holds and fits well into locking plate without falling away. There is no key to lock at present (like most trunks of this age) although we may source one in the meantime. The Interior with heavy duty old wallpaper is again intact and in great condition with no musky odours.

Sympathetically cleaned to retain its history and charm. A superb example.
