Some of the most beautiful Victorian trunks are doll trunks. They were made for little girls to store and carry their doll clothes. Many are still being made round the world today but the true Victorian beauties are becoming extremely rare. Collecting doll trunks has become a hobby all its own. Here are some of the miniatures that we've restored. Please note that all of the doll trunks below are EXAMPLES. They are in a private collection and NOT FOR SALE.
