Description from the seller
Old travel trunk in wood and metal – Late 19th / early 20th century
Description: Authentic antique travel trunk, made of wood with metal and leather reinforcements, dating between the late 19th and early 20th century. It is a functional and decorative piece, representative of the era when trunks were used for personal transport on long journeys.
The exterior features a robust frame with metal corner guards and reinforcements, as well as decorative details made with rivets forming geometric motifs and letters on the lid. It retains traces of its original finish with an attractive aged patina in brownish and greenish tones, the result of time.
The interior preserves its original textile lining with a decorative print, which adds historical value and authenticity to the piece. It has a front lock (no key) and side handles. On one side there are traces of an old shipping label, evidence of its original use.
Materials: Wood, metal and leather
Origin: Europe
Dating: ca. 1880–1920
Condition: Condition in line with its age and use. General wear, marks, losses in the exterior lining, oxidation on metal elements and small structural damages in the wood. Interior shows signs of use and deterioration. Unrestored piece, preserving its original character.
Dimensions: Approximate measurements to be confirmed
Notes: Ideal as a decorative piece, prop, or for collectors of antique furniture and travel items. Its authentic aesthetic and patina make it a piece with great personality.
Shipping: It will be carefully packaged to ensure proper protection during transport.
