About the Item

Antique travelling bag covered in black leather. With gold-plated brass metal fittings on the edges, corners and zips. The structure is reinforced with studs all round, giving it robustness and decorative character. It has a leather side handle, secured by metal brackets, making it easy to carry. The leather shows obvious signs of wear and tear, testifying to intensive use and the passage of time. The top shows abrasion marks and loss of material, reinforcing the authenticity and history of the object. This type of suitcase was commonly used on long journeys, particularly transatlantic ones, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and was often associated with travelling trunks used by wealthy families. In addition to its original practical function, today this piece has acquired aesthetic and decorative value and can be used as a distinctive element in vintage or industrial-inspired interiors.
