ANTIQUE 20thC FRENCH HAT TRUNK IN CHEVRON CANVAS BY GOYARD, PARIS c.1900
A superb example of an early 20th century Goyard hat trunk, beautifully finished in the brand’s iconic chevron canvas. This unusually sized trunk is in very good condition and evokes the elegance and refinement of first-class travel during the golden age of passenger ships.
The trunk’s distinctive design, with its structured form, leather trim, and brass fittings, not only ensured the safe transport of prized hats but also reflected the luxurious lifestyle of its original owners. Its generous proportions make it a striking statement piece, perfect for use as a display item, coffee table, or standalone accent in both modern and traditional interiors.
