Antique Indian Wedding Trunk with Carved Details, Mirror, and Hidden Storage

About the Item

This antique Indian wedding trunk is a striking blend of function and artistry, designed to store treasured heirlooms with a touch of grandeur. Crafted from solid wood, likely teak or sheesham, it showcases a discreet incised carved décor on the exterior, lending depth and character to its timeworn patina. The surface bears delicate, symmetrical motifs, enhancing its historical appeal. The true marvel lies within—opening the hinged lid reveals a meticulously organized interior, designed with removable compartments, concealed storage, and an ornate mirrored backdrop. Framed by hand-carved arches, the mirror adds a luminous dimension, while decorative floral panels and geometric cutouts nod to traditional Indian craftsmanship. Every section unfolds with purpose, making this piece as practical as it is visually compelling. Versatile in its use, this trunk serves as a statement coffee table, an entryway focal point, or a bedroom storage solution for linens, blankets, or keepsakes. Its rich history and craftsmanship allow it to blend effortlessly with bohemian, eclectic, and antique-inspired interiors, bringing warmth and heritage into any space. Whether admired for its artistry or used for functional storage, this wedding trunk remains a timeless addition to any home.
