Description from the seller

Ancient travel trunk with initials – Late 19th century / Early 20th century

Magnificent original travel trunk, dated approximately between the late 19th century and the early 20th century, with authentic charm and strong decorative presence.

Made from solid wood with metal reinforcements, it features an elegant domed lid typical of travel trunks of the era, designed for greater durability and practicality during long journeys.

On the top stand out the initials “M.O.Z.”, made with metal studs, probably corresponding to its former owner, which adds a unique historical character to the piece.

The interior preserves its original textile lining, with a beautiful decorative pattern, uncommon in pieces of this age. It also retains its original lock (no key), as well as thousands of hardware pieces and the structure in intact condition.

Signs of use and aging are evident (see photographs), which is consistent with its age and adds an appealing patina.

Features:
Material: wood and metal
Era: circa 1880–1920
Decorative initials: M.O.Z.
Original lined interior
Original lock (no key)
Condition: good for its age, with wear appropriate to use
Ideal for:
Vintage or industrial decoration
Side table or storage trunk
Collectors of antique items

Authentic piece, with history, perfect for giving personality to any space.
