20th Century Louis Vuitton Suitcase In Natural Cow Hide, France c.1910
Located in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
A highly unusual and exceptionally rare Louis Vuitton suitcase, originating from the early years of the 20th century, distinguishes itself not with the globally renowned monogram canvas but with a distinctive covering crafted from a singular piece of cowhide. This unique piece represents a special order from Louis Vuitton, showcasing the brand's historical commitment to utilising only the finest hides available.
Unlike many of its counterparts, leather trunks and cases of this era often struggle to withstand the test of time, requiring regular treatments to prevent drying and disintegration. Remarkably, this particular example defies the odds, retaining the same supple quality it possessed on the day it first graced the shop floor. This suitcase belongs to Louis Vuitton's collection of "speciality materials," which encompasses a diverse range, including, but not limited to, zinc, copper, crocodile leather, and cow leather.
A brief history about Louis Vuitton trunks: Louis Vuitton was born in 1821 to a farmer and milliner and came from a long-established working-class family in eastern France. Vuitton grew up understanding the effects of perseverance and a strong work ethic from watching his family. At the age of 16, he made the decision to walk 292 miles from his hometown to Paris to try and make a new life for himself. When he arrived the city was in the midst of industrialization with current modes of transportation evolving quickly allowing for longer journeys. With this came the need for sturdy travel pieces.
Vuitton was taken as an apprentice for a successful box maker and packer named Monsieur Marechal. He learned to craft durable containers and how to pack them properly – a well-respected profession at the time.In 1854, years after he had mastered his craft and became well respected for it, Vuitton ventured out on his own to open a shop on Rue Neuve des Capucines. It was here that he began to establish himself as a luggage maker. Then, in 1858, Vuitton designed the first Louis Vuitton steamer trunk. At the time trunks had rounded tops to allow for water to run off but this did not allow for convenient stowage. Vuitton introduced a flat, yet waterproof, trunk that was easily stackable. The first of his trunks were outfitted with a grey canvas referred to as Trianon – it wouldn’t be until several decades later that the signature monogram would be introduced.
With a burgeoning business, Vuitton moved his family and workplace to Asniere, where he employed twenty workers to craft his trunks. By 1900 he would have 100 employees, and in 1914 the company would more than double in size. After years of success, Vuitton began to experiment with the design of his luggage by introducing a new striped canvas pattern (1876) and later the still well-known Damier print (1888). The hand-painted patterns were developed to prevent counterfeits. Even in the late 1800s, Louis Vuitton was enough of a status symbol to warrant counterfeiting. In 1886, his son George invented and patented an ingenious locking system that made it impossible to pick the lock of their trunks. This lock is still used today.
1892 would prove to be a time of mourning for the family as Louis Vuitton passed...

Paravento alla chinoiserie. Italia, secondo quarto XIX secolo
By Non-Standard Furniture and Lighting
Located in Milano, IT
Paravento a cinque pannelli snodabili; in pioppo interamente laccato in nero, è decorato con motivi dipinti alla chinoiseie: dragoni, scimmie, volatili, e riserve raffiguranti scene di vita cinese, di giocoleria e di combattimento. Presenta cornici fogliacee dorate a decorazione della cimasa e della parte inferiore. Rivisitazione del designer Pietro Russo con stoffa Dedar.
Già ampiamente diffuse alla fine del secolo percedente, le chinoiserie ebbero una vera e propria diffusione nell’Ottocento, apprezzate e richieste dalle principali corti europee. I richiami alla Cina e all’Oriente in genere erano in grado di richiamare un esotismo tanto qpperezzato a livello estetico quanto a livello culturale.
Il calligrafismo dei disegni a chinoiserie, l’eterongeneo bestiario (sia reale che fantastico) e le scene di vita, offrivano infatti infinite soluzioni decorative per piccoli oggetti e intere pareti, creando interessanti effetti sccenografici nell’allestimento delle grandi sale. Tra i principali propomotori delle chinoiserie vi fu re Giorgio IV che, con la costruzione del Royal Pavilion a Brighton come palazzo di piacere sul mare, decise di allestire alcuni dei locali proprio con questo stile. In particolare la Banqueting Room, la Long Gallery e la Music Room presentano arredi, lampadari, oggettistica quali porcellane, ma anche moquette e vetrate, di gusto orientaleggiante.
Le pareti della stanza dedicata alla musica, furono decorate con scene di vita cinese, in oro su fondo rosso, realizzate da Frederick Crace e Henry...

Antique 20th Century Louis Vuitton Trunk In Woven Canvas, France c.1900
Located in Royal Tunbridge Wells, Kent
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. The very first run was only made for about six years from 1895 and the print was woven into the canvas.
This example dates to around 1900 and is a perfect example of such trunks. With its steel trim, brass studs and locks 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.
A brief history about Louis Vuitton trunks: Louis Vuitton was born in 1821 to a farmer and milliner and came from a long-established working-class family in eastern France. Vuitton grew up understanding the effects of perseverance and a strong work ethic from watching his family. At the age of 16, he made the decision to walk 292 miles from his hometown to Paris to try and make a new life for himself.
