I'm not sure what that is.
It does have a strong odor.
When I get home, I'll have to look camphor wood up.

Here's an old trunk that has been in my family for about 5 generations.

As you can see, it has been repaired a few times (originally with brass plates), then
with some copper plates, then black hinges.
If I remember right it came from my great, great, grandfather.

I just like the way it looks, not too complex with the design, nor plain.....

It's 43" long x 21" wide x 18.5" high.

If someone could give me rough date range that would be great.
