Right. These are made by defining texture coordinates (uv unwrapping or 
mapping) in a modelling tool such as blender, 3d max, maya etc, and then 
somebody with much more artistic talent than I have paints the texture and 
saves it as an image. So then the texture coordinates saved in the exported 
obj file in conjunction with the texture image (png or webp or whatever) then 
gets nicely applied to the geometry when rendered.

In this case, the chest came from Nobiax:
