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

Steamer trunks were robust travel chests designed during the late 19th and early 20th centuries for long journeys aboard ocean liners and steam trains. Their flat or slightly curved tops allowed them to be easily stacked in cargo holds.

These trunks were typically constructed from a lightweight pine or plywood frame overlaid with vulcanised fibre, canvas, or leather. They featured metal corner protectors, riveted trim, and sturdy brass or iron latches for security.

Authentic pieces often display heavy brass or cast metal hardware, patinated rivets, original lock plates, and period paper or fabric linings inside the chest.

A flat-topped steamer trunk functions effectively as an accent coffee table in a living room, a blanket chest at the foot of a bed, or a practical storage unit in a hallway.

Dust the exterior gently with a microfibre cloth and treat brass hardware with a mild metal cleaner if required. Avoid placing the chest in damp conditions or direct sunlight to protect the outer material and interior lining.
