A vintage furniture collection Richards Trunks, made of reclaimed oak wood, leather and old metal are inspired by an English steamer trunk which once belonged to a traveler Tom Richards. Beautiful retro furniture sets are built of exact reproductions of old trunks.

After seemingly circling the globe, a canvas-clad steamer trunk landed at an European antiques market and was used as an inspiration for creating the exclusive collection of vintage furniture ad decorative accessories. It was battered and worn, but its careful construction and handsome detailing marked it as bespoke luggage, crafted in early 20th-century England for a traveler.

A traveler name, according to the brass plate mounted above the latch, was Tom Richards. The trunk made its way to the workshop of Timothy Oulton, where it was painstakingly dismantled. From that well-made, well-traveled trunk, the collection of vintage furniture and decorative accessories, made of reclaimed wood, leather and metal,was born.
