What did the first Louis Vuitton trunk look like?
The first Louis Vuitton trunk looked rather simple. It had a plain wood exterior and a solid-colored gray canvas lining. What made the trunk unique was that, unlike others produced at the time, it featured a flat top, making it easier to carry and allowing users to stack their luggage.
