Woven wicker wraps the entire body, warm and textured, while leather strapping and trim—richly patinated from years of travel—reinforce the corners, edges, and lid. The original leather handle remains intact, a quiet nod to the era’s craftsmanship and the journeys this trunk once took.

Now, with a custom steel base, it’s been transformed into the perfect drinks or side table—ideal for a cocktail, a stack of books, or anything you want to keep within arm’s reach.
