19th c. Grain Trunk

France, 19th Century

$1,395

So, spoiler alert: you need this. A 19th-century grain trunk that doubles as a console? Yes, please. Built from solid oak and raised on legs, these trunks were once used to store wheat, rye, and other grains in French farmhouses, their height keeping contents safe from damp floors and critters. This one still bears its honest patina, a reminder of its working life, but now it’s ready for a second act. Sylvie loves it as a television console, a hallway anchor, or even behind the couch, hiding away your less photogenic possessions while showing off your best.

  • Dimensions:

    28" H x 45" W x 22.5" D

  • Material:

    Oak Wood

  • Notes from Sylvie:

    This very solid oak piece has some remnants of past finish and patina on the legs. The top opens beautifully. Past woodworm holes, repairs, cracks, patina, and stains all add to its character.

  • Collector's Notice:
