Docklands Old Elm Storage Trunk Small - Old Elm

Docklands Old Elm Storage Trunk Small – Old Elm | Online8 New Zealand

The Docklands Old Elm Storage Trunk brings timeless craftsmanship together with practical storage, here in a compact 500mm cube. Crafted from reclaimed elm, it carries the rich character of aged timber — distinctive grain, natural markings and warm rustic tones that make every piece unique. Sturdy black metal handles and a traditional latch closure make it a good-looking way to keep blankets, cushions, toys or household essentials tidied away.

Why It Stands Apart

• Reclaimed elm: Timber with a history already in it, given a second life rather than milled new.
• Compact 500mm cube: Storage that tucks into a corner, beside a sofa or at the foot of a bed without dominating the room.
• Works as a side table: At 500mm high with a flat lid, it sits at the right height beside an armchair for a lamp or a cup of tea.
• Black metal handles: Sturdy forged-look handles at each end, so it lifts and moves easily.
• Traditional latch closure: A simple, solid catch that keeps the lid shut and adds to the trunk's old-world look.
• One of a kind: Grain, markings and tone differ across every trunk, so no two are identical.
• Pairs with the large: The same trunk is also made at 1300mm, so the two can be used together in one room.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare with the large Docklands trunk?
This is the small size at 500 × 500 × 500mm. The large measures 1300 × 500 × 450mm, so it is longer and slightly lower. Both are reclaimed elm with the same handles and latch.

What is it good for storing?
Blankets, cushions, toys and general household essentials. The interior is a single open space, so bulky soft items fit easily.

Can I use it as a side table?
Yes. The flat lid sits 500mm off the floor, which is a comfortable height beside an armchair or sofa.

Is the timber new or reclaimed?
Reclaimed elm. The markings, grain variation and rustic tones are part of the timber's history rather than faults.
