An antique English wicker trunk with painted lettering and distinctive metal strap detailing, dating to the early 20th century. Originally used for transport and storage, trunks like this were made to be both sturdy and functional—hauled onto carts, carriages, or trains packed with provisions or personal goods. The willow weaving has developed a warm, varied surface from age, while the dark painted markings give a sense of its original purpose and place. The addition of metal straps across the lid provided extra reinforcement for heavy use, a utilitarian touch that now reads as a handsome design detail. With its leather strap closure still intact, this piece carries the rugged charm of its working past while remaining endlessly practical today for storing blankets, firewood, or everyday essentials.
