Storage Trunks

A rugged historical statement from our rustic furniture South Africa range, this 60 x 60 x 60cm Pitara trunk is a masterfully crafted piece of storage furniture that combines rich heritage charm with essential home utility. Rooted in traditional craftsmanship, the trunk features a rich, dark wood finish accented by a heavy-duty iron grid overlay. The weathered texture of the wood, paired with the hand-forged iron bands, gives it a timeless, antique aesthetic that complements rustic, farmhouse or eclectic interiors. A central iron latch serves as both a secure closure and a bold decorative focal point, while turned wooden feet lift the piece to provide a lighter profile despite its solid construction.
