- Backordered, shipping soon
A beautifully timeworn distressed black antique solid teak blanket box with a wonderfully simple, rustic presence and rich natural patina developed over many years of use. Crafted from substantial old-growth teak, this large trunk combines practical storage with understated character, making it an effortless addition to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
The piece features hand-cut dovetail joints, a thick solid teak lid and original iron side handles, all showcasing the honest craftsmanship of the period. Its warm aged timber tones, worn surface markings and softened edges give the trunk a depth and authenticity that cannot be recreated in newly made furniture.
Generously proportioned, this versatile antique trunk works beautifully as a blanket box at the end of a bed, a rustic coffee table, hallway storage chest or living room storage piece. The clean lines and unfussy form allow the natural beauty of the teak and the passage of time to take centre stage.
This is a genuine antique item with all the charm and individuality associated with age. Surface wear, marks, historic repairs and natural variations in the timber are all part of its unique character.

Condition
Please note that this is a genuine antique item and not a newly manufactured piece. Signs of age, wear and historical use are to be expected and form part of its character and charm. Variations in colour, surface texture, old repairs, marks, knocks, scratches, small splits, historic wood movement and imperfections in the finish are all consistent with age and authenticity.
We make every effort to photograph and describe our pieces accurately, however antique furniture will always show the natural patina and irregularities acquired over many years of use. These details are considered part of the beauty and uniqueness of each one-of-a-kind item.
