This authentic and rare Louis Vuitton “Ideal” trunk (from French “Malle Idéale”), circa 1920's, features a very crisp monogram canvas, all brass hardware, leather and lozine trims. This trunk was kept in near immaculate condition. The patina on both the canvas and the brass hardware is exceptional. This specific model was initially introduced as the ‘Perfect Trunk’. The double-topped wardrobe trunk opens like a giant toolbox and has retained the original monogram canvas finish. The fine details of the brass lock and drawbolts, metal binding, and elephant leather handles give this luxurious trunk a timeless feel. The trunk also contains two discrete interior compartments. This trunk is a standout piece on its own and a perfect accent for any space, perfect as a center piece, bed end or coffee table. Excellent condition considering age – Wears and marks, signs of use and travels. Very rare and desirable format.
