Brass Bound Teak Military Chest From Burma - 19th Century
This original Burmese military chest is made to Anglo-Indian military standards. Also called a Burmese campaign chest, these trunks were originally used by officers of the British Indian Army to carry their kit and personal possessions whilst on tour. The British East India Company had stations across Northern India & Burma throughout much of the 19th century. It's likely this chest was made for an East Indiaman stationed in Burma (modern-day Myanmar). The plaque would have originally born the owner's name.
It is constructed from beautifully patinated teak and has its original brass fittings and handles. The interior consists of one large space surrounded by carved compartments and a sturdy chain that prevents the lid from falling open and straining the hinges. This piece is a fine example of an Anglo-Indian military chest.
Military chests were used by officers of the British Indian Army to carry their kit and personal possessions whilst, on tour, they were made to order and had to withstand a lot of punishment in transit. Old repairs can be seen on the hinges.
