First and Second LV Canvas?

[nastasja]

Actually, damier came out 8 years before the monogram did, though it's actually the THIRD canvas to come out. I was having a nice chat with the supervisor who was showing me bags, and she said LV will be bringing the second canvas back soon...and maybe even the first ever canvas!

What do these look like?

Wow, sounds interesting!

 

[purselova34]

That's really interesting. I'd like to see the first.

I don't exactly remember what she said, but one of the canvases is striped..like the trunks. It should be interesting though since I never knew that there were canvases that came out before the Damier.

Striped? I picture in my mind the striped interior of those trianon bags. Is that what the supervisor meant? And what did the second canvas look like? I'm intrigued.

Anyone w/ the book? Is it in there?

Swanky its on pages 55 & 89.

The first canvas is called the Trianon. The second came about in 1876, it was the light and beige stripes.

[Swanky]

Oh Thanks!! I don't have the book!!

 

[Swanky]

I like teh stripes, stripes can be so regal! I can't see anything really on the 1st one, looks like plain canvas to me{?}

 

[eyelove]

Ok, from the book.........

Thanks edsbgrl, that was quick!
O.K, now what am I looking at here...the second trunk has a beige/yellowish striped canvas.
But the first trunk, with all due respect, that surface canvas looks like decayed drywall...

 

[edsbgrl]

The grey is a bit plain. I would surely but a trunk b/c it would be such a collectors piece but on a bag, I'm thinking not so much........

The stripes? I can see them doing something with them. Hopefully it won't be anything strange like the perforated bags.
