Style Note & Highlights: The Louis Vuitton Papillon 30 in Damier Ébène canvas is the perfect symbiosis of graphic rigor and feminine cylindrical form. First created in 1966 by Henri Louis Vuitton, its playful silhouette recalls the unfurling wings of a butterfly. The durable Damier Ébène canvas is framed by smooth dark brown leather trims and elegant long shoulder straps that allow for effortless carrying on the shoulder. The bright terracotta red cross-grain leather lining offers a striking contrast to the checkered exterior. This French original from March 2004 (DU0034) is distinguished by its excellent shape retention and remains a timeless essential for lovers of architectural bag icons.
