Louis Vuitton stencil steamer trunk, 1909-1914

His history

This Louis Vuitton trunk has its canvas with the acronyms representing the Louis Vuitton company. The acronyms of the monogram were created on the coated canvas, with a stencil. Then, the stencil was removed and the craftsman began to paint a few centimeters further. It is a real craft work of the time. The interior label tells us that this monogrammed trunk was manufactured between 1909 (Lille store) and 1914 (Champs Elysées store which is not on this label).
