1900 - 1920
Description

Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this absolutely stunning fully restored original Louis Vuitton 1910 steamer wardrobe, Malle Penderie trunk in orange canvas

Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price

A very good looking well made and decorative trunk, it can be used free standing or laying down, it has handles top and bottom for carriage and transportation, naturally the modern function of these pieces is for adding a sense of style and class to a space, we have one at home as a coffee table and when they are this shape and size, they work brilliantly

The trunk is completely original, every single brass stud is stamped Louis Vuitton, the lock reads “8th S.G.D.G. PATENT A RUE SCRIBE PARIS LOUIS VUITTON LONDON 149 NEW BOND STREET with MADE IN PARIS beneath, the truck has both original paper labels present which both read I.RUE SCRIBE PARIS LOUIS VUITTON 149 NEW BOND ST LONDON

This piece as mentioned has been fully restored on the outside, the internals as ever has been left totally original and untouched. The work to the outside has been extensive, the case has been completely washed back taking off the years of travel dirt, the timber washed back waxed and polished, all the studs and brass work burnished and polished, the steel work painted black and then the whole thing sealed. This piece is ready to go for another 100 years

There are areas of wear externally as with all these pieces, usually from loading and unloading, there will be general patination all over as you would hope (and expect) based on honest age and genuine use

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A malle penderie is an upright wardrobe trunk introduced in the early 20th century, designed specifically to hang garments and store clothing flat during extended travel.

Trunks from this era were typically constructed with solid wood frames wrapped in heavy coated canvas, reinforced with wood slats, brass locks, and leather or metal edging.

Authentic pieces feature stamped brass hardware, branded locks with unique serial numbers, signed maker labels inside the frame, and hand-riveted stud detailing.

An upright wardrobe trunk functions as a dramatic focal piece in a dressing room, hallway, or bedroom, serving either as decorative accent storage or displayed open.

Keep the trunk away from direct heat and damp environments; dust the canvas with a soft dry cloth and periodically treat leather borders with a specialist conservation balm.
