I was going to suggest antique stores, garage sales and auctions but now that I've looked at your location.....I don't know that they have them there. Do you have used furniture stores or anything that sells old, used furniture? I've bought several old steamer trunks over the years and almost every household seems to have one somewhere in th house. My grandmother had several, of different sizes. In addition to a beautiful old blanket chest from the early 1700's, that is so big I could keep two slaves in it. She still had the original keys, which is actually very rare. I am sure if you think outside the proverbial box and look around you will not only find something that will work well, but could also be an attractive home furnishing.
