Trunks

A trunk or an occasional piece with history adds storage and character in equal measure. Pieces designed to keep blankets, textiles or keepsakes without sacrificing beauty, ideal for bringing warmth to bedrooms, entrance halls and country houses.

Place it at the foot of the bed, in the hallway or next to the sofa as a side table. On top, a tray with candles or a couple of books turns it into a focal point. Clean the wood with a dry cloth and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
