- 20th Century Louis Vuitton Trunk in Damier Canvas, Paris, C.1900By Louis VuittonLocated in Royal Tunbridge Wells, KentOne of the rarest Louis Vuitton trunks to be offered, this trunk is covered in the world famous damier (checkerboard) canvas. Dating to around 1900, it is a perfect example of such trunks. With its leather trim, brass studs, fittings 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. This particular example has very unusual proportions, measuring 70cm in height but a narrower 90cm in width. Usually trunks with a height of 70cm have a width of 110cm, so quite possibly this trunk was a special order made for Mr or Mrs Waters. The lettering on both sides are original from the Louis Vuitton factory...Category
