Trunk by Jaipur’s Trunks Company
Jaipur’s Trunks Company is reviving the lost art of handcrafted trunks. Once a cherished possession, especially for travellers journeying across seas, the company is bringing the trunk back as a handcrafted design item used for a variety of purposes, to hold crystal, turbans, jewellery, watches and like this trunk pictured here, make-up. Created in fine-grain leather, wood and brass, the trunk features a design with a mesmerising nod to old world charm, blending the age-old tradition of dressing up and beautifying with the need for meticulous care, privacy and organisation. As its leather façade unfolds into the microfabric-sheathed inside, an extendable wooden workstation comes into view in addition to built-in pouf and swivel drawers. Each detailing – from a bulb illuminated mirror to hidden recesses – is sculpted to reflect meticulous aesthetic functionality. This trunk offers a world of vanity epitomising the ageless art and timeless ritual of adorning oneself with beauty. trunkscompany.com
