Many chests were indeed found in the tomb of Tutankhamun. Even the Greeks and Romans used them for all significant travels. Back then, the trunk was a wooden and bronze chest, sometimes decorated with ivory and precious metal ornaments. The lid was flat to allow for the stacking of trunks in the mode of transport used. At the discovery of America in 1492, trunks filled with all the new fruits and products from the New World crossed the ocean to reach the Old World. The industrial revolution swept through the 19th century with the advent of a new concept in travel trunks. Gradually, the chest settled into homes, becoming the perfect container for childhood memories or a handy coffee table! Condition: Used: An item that has been used.
