This stunning 18th-century leather box is not just a beautiful piece of art, but also a fascinating glimpse into the past. Used as an official post suitcase for mail between Quito and Cuenca in Ecuador, this intricately crafted sculpture showcases the skilled craftsmanship of the time.
Made entirely of leather, this box served as a vital communication tool in an era before modern technology took over. Its traditional design and historical significance make it a valuable object that tells a story of tradition and history in South America.
The detailed carving on the leather surface speaks to the expertise of furriers who created such intricate designs by hand. The bag's functionality as a post casket highlights its importance in carrying important documents and messages across long distances.
Displayed against a backdrop of Latin American culture, this leather box stands out as both an accessory and a symbol of job-related duties from centuries past. With its connection to Aurelio Espinosa Polot Ecuadorian Library, this piece serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and technological advancements that have shaped Ecuador's history.
