Several precious artefacts recovered from the world’s most famous shipwreck, the Titanic, are sitting in a secret warehouse. The items are extremely valuable, because of which the location of the warehouse has never been made public.&nbsp;

BBC reported that the warehouse is somewhere in Atlanta, Georgia, in the United States. However, the exact location is not known. The broadcaster got a sneak peek into the thousands of precious artefacts housed at this warehouse.

RMS Titanic Inc, an American company has the sole right to salvage items from the famous shipwreck. It has retrieved 5,500 items from the site to date. The company was given the right to do so in 1994 by a US court but under one condition. They cannot split the items and should conserve them properly.

One of the items fished out of the ocean is an alligator skin handbag that has survived decades at the bottom of the sea. Tomasina Ray, director of collections for the company, described the alligator handbag, saying, "It's a really beautiful, fashionable little bag."

It belonged to a third-class passenger called Marian Meanwell, and the items inside the bag are also in great condition after all these years. There is a faded photo inside which is supposedly her mother's.

“She was a 63-year-old milliner,” says Tomasina. “And she was travelling to the US to be with her daughter who was recently widowed.”

Marian was carrying official papers with her to start a life in the US, along with a recommendation letter written by her landlord. The text is clear as well, and reads, "We have always found Miss Meanwell to be a good tenant, prompt with payment.”

<h2>The tragic story of the woman</h2>

A shocking detail was revealed by the medical card found inside the bag. Marian was supposed to travel on Majestic - another White Star Line ship. The card shows Majestic being struck out because it did not sail, after which she was transferred to the Titanic.

Among other artefacts are tiny vials of perfume which are still extremely potent. They belonged to a perfume salesman named Adolphe Saalfeld who carried&nbsp;over 90 vials, Tomasina said. He was one of the survivors.

There is also a champagne bottle with the cork still in place. Then there are different types of crockery, showcasing the class divide.&nbsp;

Titanic set sail from Southampton, England on April 15, 1912, with an estimated 2,224 passengers and crew on board. A total of 1,496 of them died after the ship&nbsp;struck an iceberg during its maiden voyage.&nbsp;
