It has a lovely, rich patina. Its size is also quite rare, as it measures 120 cm wide. The interior is entirely lined with its original beige linen, including the original tufting under the lid. Only the bottom has been replaced with dark brown felt. It still has its Louis Vuitton label and serial number. Overall, the interior is very clean considering it is over 110 years old. Of course, it is not in perfect condition; there are a few stains, but these are part of its charm. A custom-made wooden stand has been created to raise it slightly. Without the stand, it is only 40 cm high. This Louis Vuitton trunk can be used as a coffee table or blanket chest in any elegant interior. Designer: Louis Vuitton (manufacturer)
