Our trunks are also known as a steamer trunks or traveling trunks. This type of luggage first appeared in the 1870s and was commonly used for extended trips on steamships, trains, or coaches.
The dome top design was popular, though the myth about it having bearing on the owner's social status or age is incorrect.
Trunks like this were typically constructed with a wooden frame (often pine) and covered with canvas, leather, or patterned paper, with metal or wood slats for reinforcement.
