"THE VICTOR" Steamer Trunk / wardrobe, 1920's
"THE VICTOR" Steamer Trunk / wardrobe, 1920's
Dating from circa early 20th Century this is an original antique travel wardrobe / trunk.
To survive the trials and tribulations of overseas steamship travel it is by design very sturdy and of heavy construction. The case opens to reveal a fully fitted interior encompassing a hanging wardrobe section with hangers and four fitted drawer sections.
The vivid blue exterior has the original single leather handle designed to pull the case along a dockside or platform and bears original travel labels as evidence of where the case has been in its lifetime. The brass studded trim adds to its robust look and the vintage case also has the initials"DG" relating to its previous owners. Unfortunately the lock bears evidence of damage and is no longer in working order - we must presume the keys were lost at some point and the owner resorted to drastic measures ! (please examine photographs)
This classic design piece could be used simply as a decorative item in the home, for storage or even as a coffee table. It is in good condition with the expected marks gained from a lifetime of extensive travel.
