A striking mid-20th century aluminium travel trunk stencilled with the name T.A. Pearce, likely belonging to a serviceman or traveller. This robust and lightweight trunk features riveted panels, reinforced corners with aged brass protectors, and original latches and leather carry handles to the sides.
The exterior has a beautifully aged industrial finish with oxidised and weathered patina, while the interior is lined in light blue cotton fabric, typical of the period. Originally designed for durability during overland or transatlantic travel, this piece now makes a fantastic decorative storage chest, coffee table, or display prop.
