Description from the seller

Vintage Antique-Style Travel Trunk with Leather-Effect Covering and Brass-Tone Details

Characteristic vintage travel trunk, featuring a sturdy construction and an exterior covered in cognac-brown leather-effect material, enriched with numerous decorative metal details.

The lid and external panels display a strongly aged and textured surface, with craquelure, abrasions, marks and natural signs of age, giving the piece an authentic vintage character. The structure is reinforced with longitudinal and perimeter strips decorated with numerous rivets.

The metal corner protectors, front clasps and central brass-tone metal band are particularly attractive details, emphasizing the traditional appearance of a travelling trunk. The original side handles and closure mechanisms are also present.

The interior, shown in the photographs, is lined with decorative material featuring floral and ornamental motifs in green, red and cream tones, with signs of age consistent with the period. The generous interior space makes it suitable for storing textiles, documents, accessories, collectibles or other personal items.
