About the Item

20th Century Belgian metal suitcase. This industrial travel case features a striking black-painted finish with original stenciled lettering reading “Ch. Vandenwiele – Bruxelles,” referencing its Belgian origin. Crafted from durable sheet metal with reinforced edges and corner brackets, it exemplifies early 20th-century utilitarian design. The aged surface bears a rich patina of use, while the interior reveals remnants of green and white paint, preserving its authentic character. Complete with side handles and latching hardware, this piece serves beautifully as a decorative storage trunk or historical accent, evoking the charm of European industrial craftsmanship.
