About the Item

Trunk. Wood, leather, iron. Spanish school, around 1700. Wooden trunk with curved lid and rectangular shape, covered in leather on the outside, with hardware, handles, studs and two closures on the front, which has a front and top opening. The interior has a lower space accessible from the front divided in two by a vertical wood; The lid and part of the chest have a textile covering. The back does not have leather. The circular head nails are arranged in geometric shapes. The handles have disc decorations. The hardware, also worked, follows models based on architectural designs, motifs also present on the lock shields on the front. Some of the metal elements still have traces of gilding. These types of trunks were known as “travel trunks” because they were normally used to store objects on trips, hence the leather covering and the apparent lack of decoration on the outside. Having two locks was for greater security, since the two keys had to be joined together to open them and these were usually entrusted to two different people. Compare it with the 17th century travel trunk from the Viceroyalty of Peru in the Museum of America (Madrid), which features decoration of animals and plant motifs (embossed leather). Or with the Mayorazgo de la Cerda Arch (17th century) from the National Museum of Decorative Arts (Madrid). Size: 85x129x65 cms WEight is merely orientative.
