This fascinating publication presents the roles that two men have played in turning a small workshop in 19th century Paris into one of the most successful and recognized brands in the world. Known for both its craftsmanship and high-end design, the luxury house Louis Vuitton was created by its eponymous founder in 1854\. The first half of this publication traces the innovations of Vuitton, which turned the little-known guild profession of emballeur (packer) into the leading manufacturer of luxury trunks in Paris, with a clientele that included the French nobility in his lifetime, as well as the elite of a prosperous empire. • Language: English
