I am completely stymied...we bought a very old trunk at an auction and we love it. Ever since we got it though it has had two damp spots on one of the wooden planks. The weird thing is those spots are DEFINITELY damp ALL the time and it's not exposed to any water at all. And it's not like the whole thing is damp, just these two spots...they're very specific.

So how does wood stay damp all the time when there's no water or humidity?

I have no idea at all but it's freaking me out!
