Louis Vuitton Vintage Leather Trunk 60 Brown – Antique LV Travel Case with Stickers & Heavy Patina (Rare Collector Trunk)

Louis Vuitton Vintage Leather Trunk 60 – Brown Leather, Travel Stickers, Heavy Patina – Antique LV Case (France)

A rare full-leather Louis Vuitton travel trunk bearing the unmistakable marks of history, travel, and time.

For collectors who appreciate true, unfiltered vintage character, this Louis Vuitton Leather Trunk 60 delivers an abundance of soul. Its worn-in textures, surviving travel stickers, and century-aged patina make it a rare, emotionally rich artifact from the golden age of world travel and craftsmanship.

🧡 DESCRIPTION

This Louis Vuitton Vintage Leather Trunk 60 is an extraordinary piece from the maison’s early travel era, crafted entirely in brown leather and aged into a deeply atmospheric state. The surface bears layered travel stickers—faded, peeling, and fragmented—which create a collage of journeys taken long before modern travel existed.

At approximately 60 cm width, this trunk sits in the medium–large category of LV travel cases, originally intended for personal belongings during long voyages by rail and ocean liner. The leather features heavy wear, scratches, discoloration, abrasions, and softened edges, all consistent with a trunk that has survived decades of real-world travel and storage.

The brass hardware shows patina, oxidation, and surface rust; the leather handle reveals wear, dryness, and color change; and the interior exhibits staining and age fading. Rather than detracting, these marks contribute to the piece’s authenticity, elevating it as a genuine antique object with narrative presence.

For decorators, collectors of heritage fashion, boutique stylists, or vintage interior designers, this is the kind of LV trunk that instantly defines a space with warmth, history, and visual depth. Its imperfections are not flaws—they are the language of time.
