Hard case

SOLD

I recently rescued this metal clad suitcase, did some repair work, added a faded black multi-layer aged paint finish over
 what was once orange/sienna, and aged the hardware a smidge.

The name is painted in 14K gold, and the interior is lined with old ecru and blue floral-patterned paper.

 

27.5" x 9" x 15" plus hardware

Thanks to all who came out... it was a great (albeit exhausting) weekend.

And now we're toiling away again, getting ready for the open house in less than 2 weeks!
