Louis Vuitton Courier Trunk c.1910
Reference Number: D8582
DESCRIPTION
Antique 20th Century large monogramed canvas trunk from Louis Vuitto,n lined in ecru calico with two full width trays. The handles and fittings are all original brass.
Around the turn of the 19th and 20th century Louis Vuitton had established himself as a market leader in trunk making and needed to set his now famous brand apart from the imitators and competitors. They decided to come up with a logo, a monogram, which was indeed the famous and very recognisable print we are so familiar with today.
This example dates to around 1930. With its steel trim, brass studs and lock it still shows the same elegance as it did well over 100 years ago and is a testament to the durability of the best trunk maker in the world. Today it makes for a wonderful piece of interior design, both decorative and useful.
