Welcome to The Blue Trunk!
Iām Ujval Anand, the founderāand Iām so glad youāre here.
The Blue Trunk isnāt just about artifacts; itās about stories, memories, and the magic of Indiaās heritage. My journey began in the corporate world, but my heart always belonged to travel, culture, and art. Collecting pieces of history filled me with a joy I couldnāt ignoreāand that joy grew into The Blue Trunk.
At the heart of our Bombay gallery sits an old blue trunkāa symbol of everything we stand for. Today, Iām thrilled to share that same charm with you, wherever you are in India. Through our website, you can now explore and experience the collection anytime, from anywhere.
So, take a wander, discover what speaks to you, and letās keep the magic aliveātogether.
With warmth,
Ujval Anand

This rare vintage Vishnu lamp is a captivating collectible with a distinct design. Meticulously handcrafted from heavy brass, this vintage piece once adorned a traditional Tamil home and, despite being over 70 years old, remains in mint condition. The lamp's top takes the form of a flower bud, its face intricately etched with the revered "Sricharanam," resembling a blooming Lotus. Symbolic carvings of the Sun and Moon on either side of the Sricharanam represent light, enlightenment, and purity. The wide base of the lamp features delicate floral etchings, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. This lovely piece has developed an enchanting patina over the years, adding a layer of history and charm to its timeless beauty.
