Hand Carved Trunk Chest | Coffee Table

Hand Carved Trunk Chest | Coffee Table | Online8 New Zealand

Around 80 years of history, reborn as a hand-carved trunk chest and coffee table in genuine reclaimed timber. It earns its keep twice over — a solid surface on top and proper hidden storage beneath the hinged lid — making it ideal for a smaller lounge or as a characterful accent piece. Because the timber is reclaimed, natural variation in grain, colour and marks is expected, so every carved piece is one of a kind.

Why It Stands Apart

• Reclaimed Timber (~80 years old): Hand carving worked into salvaged wood that already carries decades of real history.
• Hidden Storage: A sturdy hinged lid opens onto genuine internal storage for blankets, games and everyday clutter.
• Dual Purpose: Works as a coffee table, a blanket chest or an end-of-bed trunk.
• Compact Footprint: Low and neat at 80 x 40cm, ideal for smaller spaces or as an accent alongside a larger table.
• Arrives Assembled: Delivered fully assembled and ready to use — no build, no tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

How old is the timber?
The timber is genuinely reclaimed and around 80 years old, so natural variation in grain, colour and marks is expected — it's part of the character and means no two pieces are identical.

Does it work as an everyday coffee table?
Yes — the solid timber lid gives a stable surface, though at 80 x 40cm it suits smaller spaces or works as an accent piece rather than a full-size centrepiece.

How much can it store?
The hinged lid opens onto internal storage that's handy for blankets, games and other everyday items you'd rather keep out of sight.
