Description from the seller

PETER Quartz – Elegant Vintage Travel Set with Integrated Alarm Clock – Germany – ca. 1950–1960

Interesting and uncommon vintage travel set by the German brand PETER, comprising an elegant, compartmentalized hard case with an integrated Quartz alarm clock.

This is a representative example of functional European design from the 1950s and early 1960s, when practicality, organization, and aesthetics came together in objects intended to accompany travelers.

The set features an elegant black exterior, complemented by gold-tone metal fittings. Its rigid construction provides excellent protection for the contents and gives it the appearance of a small suitcase or travel case.

When opened, the case reveals a carefully organized interior layout. One section contains a spacious compartment for carrying small personal items, with various securing and divider elements. The other section has a dedicated recess for the PETER Quartz alarm clock.

The clock is one of the set’s most attractive features. It has an elegant square dial with a minimalist design, a light-colored face, geometric markers, gold-tone details, and the original PETER Quartz inscription.

Its clean, functional aesthetic perfectly reflects the German design language of the second half of the 20th century.

Set features:
Original PETER Quartz alarm clock.
Mechanism: In excellent working condition.
Clock integrated into its own compartment.
Hard travel case.
Spacious storage for small personal items.
Interior securing straps.
Auxiliary compartment.
Two separate lids.
Front metal clasps.
Top carrying handle.
Compartmentalized interior.
Compact, elegant, and functional design.
