About the Item
A rare and character-filled Spanish Colonial dome-top trunk, late 19th century, clad in original hair-on cowhide with geometric patterns formed from decorative metal studs. The rich, organic texture of the hide is framed by carved wood trim, creating a striking contrast with the rustic metal hardware and lock plate.
The trunk retains its original iron side handles, dome-shaped top, and a naturally aged patina that speaks to decades of travel and use. Inside, it is lined with a vividly printed textile interior in vibrant orange and purple, depicting folkloric scenes with exotic animals and botanical motifs—an unexpected and whimsical contrast to the rugged exterior.
This piece is both functional and decorative, ideal for use as a statement coffee table, end-of-bed storage, or an evocative display of colonial craftsmanship.
