About the Item

This 20th-century wooden case is a genuine gem for enthusiasts of plein-air art sessions. Handcrafted in Germany, the suitcase is protected by metal corners that accentuate its platonic shape. The secure metal hinges are executed in the same distinguished aubergine hue as the wood, creating a striking contrast with the rustic natural tone of the interior. The tubes of paint and a handwritten inscription in German found inside the case add an authentic touch to this antique piece.
