What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a trunk style wooden box, covered with embossed metal, painted to give it the appearance of copper, with modern locks and hinges. The velvet lining should date to the last quarter of the 20th century. The trunk was most likely manufactured in India. It is a both useful and decorative item. The estimate is based on similar items offered or sold at auction. There is no measurement for the sentimental you might attach to it.
