      Hi Dani... I have a similar suitcase on my posting if you wish to see what this liked like in better days! Without a makers label it’s fairly difficult to ascertain who made it as there we many makers of trunk and bags etc at the time. I’m guessing your was made around 1860 or thereabouts. Hope this helps a bit.

      Nice trunk!! Leather trunks are my favorites. I have one nearly identical to this that I posted 5 years ago.
