"French Vintage Steamer Trunk In Canvas-covered Wood"
A very chic canvas-covered wooden steamer trunk, with sturdy leather carrying handles and very attractive vertical wood and brass strips. This beautiful vintage travel trunk dates from the 19th century and features a green fabric lined interior, with a removable top tray, perfect for storing small trinkets or frequently used travel items. Steam trunks were so called because they were usually low enough to fit under the berth of a train or in the cabin of a steamboat. This is a lovely piece, which would work wonderfully as a coffee table or storage box in the bedroom.
