Graduated Set 3 Antique Vellum Leather Suitcases with Extensive Travel Labels

1900 - 1920
Description

Set 3 antique vellum suitcases, the largest 22" wide, the middle one 20" wide and the smaller 18" wide. All dating from the 1920's.

These 3 are all in good condition with no major problems and they are covered with extensive vintage travel labels rendering them very attractive and decorative.

To be honest, vellum luggage is a bit dull, just a simple cream colour which doesn't give much opportunity for any kind of depth of colour that you can get with brown leather.

And so these three give the opportunity to someone who likes vellum but wants it to be more punchy.

Great as a feature in any setting, a definite knock-your-eye-out lot.

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

Vellum luggage gained popularity during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries for luxury transit, constructed from calfskin parchment stretched over rigid wooden or fibre frames.

These suitcases feature internal timber frames covered in stretched parchment or skin, stitched leather handles, reinforced edges, and solid brass lever locks.

Authentic pieces display natural skin grain variations, stitched leather handles, brass hardware stamped with maker marks, and period travel or hotel labels.

A graduated stack of vellum suitcases functions effectively as an occasional side table, bedside stand, or decorative corner display within living areas.

Maintain vellum luggage by storing it away from direct heat and humidity extremes, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and avoiding chemical cleaners.
