Featured Pine trunk with secrets

Hi all, a little help with dating and where was it made. I've had this for many years and just now was able to get the smell of moth balls out of the wood!!
Trunk is about 22.5 in high and deep and 45 and a bit inch long.
With the exception of the floor the sides and top are all single boards.
Not sure if the part on the left is called a candle box but it holds two secrets. If you take the small left hand board our it has a compartment that goes to the floor but is not visible from inside the trunk. If the upright board that forms the candle box is lifted, it reveal's a pull out drawer. I didn't discover this one until I had the box for many years.
Original? ox blood paint I think. The hinges appear replaced ?
Any help appreciated thanks

 

That is a real treasure trunk...Thanks!

 

Thank you Dave. Are the hidden compartments normal?

 

more or less. Not rare anyway.

 

Love all the honest wear. Perfect for storage,wich one can always use .

 

Don't you just LOVE to find a little "hidey hole"....better yet would be finding something OLDE IN it!!!!!!

 

Like somebody's great-great granny's gold stash! Or an Abe Lincoln letter all in his own hand. Or a Billy the Kid dag no one knew existed.
