AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


Elegant vintage travel trunk, crafted in wood with a veneer-like finish, adorned with original gold-toned metal hardware featuring corner reinforcements, decorative mouldings, and closures.

The structure is solid and well preserved, typical of mid‑century transport trunks. The trunk is equipped with metal side handles, two on each side, which make it easier to move. The central latch and the metal fittings display a natural patina of age, in keeping with the object's age.

The interior is completely lined with original decorative fabric, clean and in good condition, suitable for holding linens, textiles, or personal items.

Thanks to its substantial size, the trunk also works perfectly as a piece of furniture, usable as a storage chest, a storage container at the foot of the bed, or a decorative item in the bedroom, entryway, or living room.

Overall good condition, with normal signs of wear and small traces of aging, which attest to its authenticity and vintage charm.
