Different styles of trunks nowadays are developing and many designers are smearing some creative ideas like adding more storage or just being more innovative in applying those animal hides. Generally the interior box of storage trunks are made of a wood and then lined with materials intended to protect and decorate.

Leather trunks were being common during the 1600s and 1700s and as people’s tastes and ideas in leather furniture grow, recent trunks were being now covered in canvas or some metallic designs such as adding brass add-ons like poppers and clasps embossed in storage trunks. Many manufacturers would come up with further methods just to distinguish or differentiate their trunks, by which they normally include extra compartments making it either more or less complicated to open up and closing the trunks. Nevertheless, consumers recently demand more of a light-weight piece of baggage to carry and so companies nowadays came up in different sizes and types of wood.

Most flat-top trunks, or steamer trunks, were designed to makes these pieces of luggage easier to store while traveling or simply used in the at home these days in living room as a side table or else in the bedroom for keeping things.
