Antique Trunks from Fireside Antiques

An antique trunk or chest is a fashionable way to store your belongings. Plus, it adds to the rustic ambiance that antique furniture creates in your home. You can keep old photos or mementos in a case that reminds you of a simpler time.

Fireside Antiques is a full-service antique restoration company serving the Baton Rouge community. Our antiques come from our frequent travels to Italy, France, and England. Whether you’re looking for a charming storage box or a collectible, we have a chest to fit every need.

Benefits of Antique Trunks

Antique trunks provide multiple benefits to homeowners. For starters, they give you extra storage space. Plus, they are easy to store away in a closet or attic. Rather than having a clutter of things lying out in the open, you can place all your extra items in a trunk. Plus, antique chests are stylish. Be proud to display your trunks in your living room or bedroom.

Also, trunks are ideal for storing away sentimental items. You can place a lock on your chest and have it act as a sizable safe. Revisit your trunk every once in a while to remember loved ones, revisit old memories, or reminisce about the past.

Unlike modern, flimsy storage products, antique trunks are durable and will last you a lifetime. They also come in several different designs, so you’ll always be able to find one that suits your lifestyle.
