About the Item
Antique holdall, covered in black leather. Large, covered in black leather, with a wooden structure reinforced by angle brackets and metal fittings, visibly oxidised by time. This piece, once used for long transatlantic journeys, shows obvious signs of use, giving it a distinctly historic character. Its surprisingly well-preserved interior is lined in blue velvet and is equipped with five side drawers with metal handles and a section for hanging clothes, equipped with wooden hangers and a retractable metal structure, demonstrating its original purpose of transporting clothes in an organised and safe manner.
This type of boot, also known as a ‘suitcase-hanger’ or ‘suitcase-cabinet’, was used by the wealthier classes when travelling by ship or train. An unusual collector's item that combines functionality and aesthetic value, it is a striking testimony to the way of travelling at the beginning of the 20th century.
