Welcome to The Blue Trunk!
I’m Ujval Anand, the founder—and I’m so glad you’re here.
The Blue Trunk isn’t just about artifacts; it’s about stories, memories, and the magic of India’s 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 couldn’t ignore—and that joy grew into The Blue Trunk.
At the heart of our Bombay gallery sits an old blue trunk—a symbol of everything we stand for. Today, I’m 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 let’s keep the magic alive—together.
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.
