※ Sold (Please refrain from purchasing if you are not the intended buyer) [Listed only on Mercari] [Flash Sale✨] A Louis Vuitton 70cm trunk from the good old days Made in 1984 [ SIZE ] Actual size: Approximately 70 x 47.5 x 23 cm The crucial zipper part was damaged and has been repaired and replaced by Louis Vuitton. This trunk is from the era when they were made to be light and durable, with the best construction. It required far fewer repairs than Hermès trunks from the same period, and was truly robust. The four belts inside the trunk are still firmly in place and haven't come loose. The exterior straps show signs of aging. It can still be used, so it's perfect for someone who appreciates it. ◽️ Nowadays, there are many hotels along the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, such as the Peninsula, Shangri-La, Anantara, and Hilton. However, when this trunk was made, there were only the Oriental Hotel and the Sheraton (1982) along the river, and it was a time when one could stay quietly. The Oriental Hotel provided several of these trunks. I don't know if the concierge at the current Mandarin Oriental can provide Louis Vuitton trunks, but back then, when staying at the Oriental Hotel, I would contact them in advance and they would prepare several Louis Vuitton trunks for me each time. This was over 40 years ago. ◽️ The interior is preserved as it was then. The brass lettering is different from the current ones. The bottom studs are also robustly made, unlike the plastic ones that break easily later on. Large Louis Vuitton trunks of the 70-80cm class with brass corners are too heavy and become mere ornaments. This trunk is much lighter and more practical. ✴️ Due to the vintage nature of the trunk, there are signs of use, such as scratches, stains, scuffs, and an old smell. ✴️ Please enlarge the product images and check them carefully. If you are concerned about minor details, please refrain from purchasing. No returns accepted.
