BY CHRISTEN HONG

Luggage has evolved in shape and size over the last century. Vintage trunks have become decorative storage pieces that effortlessly add period charm to your home. Step foot inside any flea market, swap meet or antiques store, and you’re practically guaranteed to find at least a dozen.

For stability, stack your vintage luggage from largest to smallest. The assortment of different shapes, finishes and hardware will offset the orderly stacking.

Larger trunks will come with either a flat or domed top. Domed pieces are more expensive and function better as a standalone piece, while the flatter trunks have more utility and are easy to stack. Stacking forms an eclectic statement piece of styles and textures that’ll catch the eye of anyone who walks into your home.
