Description

Gentleman’s Portmanteau, Steamer Trunk by Morits Madler, Safari Wardrobe

A Superb piece of history made by Germany’s finest luggage maker, dating back to the time when a gentlemans luggage would have been taken by the guide on a Safari. This one is Canvas covered and bound in brass and wood, it is domed at one end to prevent it being upturned and spoiling the contents

The wardrobe opens at the front revealing a pull out wardrobe section with one of the original hangers, there are many straps and ties inside the trunk but 2 worthy of note are for holding the gentlemans rifles safe and secure

The Madlerkoffer Trunk is 59” tall , 22” wide and 22” deep
