An exquisite “malle haute“ (tall trunk) by Louis Vuitton, early 20th century. The malle haute is the largest of the standard sizes, any trunk larger than this one would have been custom made. Covered in the world famous LV monogrammed canvas, with its lozine borders and brass fittings, it would have been the top of the line even at the time of purchase some 100+ years ago. This particular trunk bears the “scars“ of its travels and previous owners which arguably only adds to the appeal. Oozing style and elegance this trunk makes for a fantastic conversation piece, a great size for a coffee table or just as a standalone item suitable for any interior, both modern or traditional. 

Condition: some warping of the canvas, previous owner’s name stencilled to the front, top, and side (please refer to photographs).

Dimensions: 70cm high, 110cm wide, 60cm deep
