In addition, unlike previous domed shaped trunks, Vuitton’s were rectangular, making them stackable and far more convenient for shipping. His modern dirt-resistant and waterproof products were of such good quality, that they were soon in high demand. In 1854 he opened his own shop under the name of Louis Vuitton Malletier in Paris. In only a few years, Vuitton was well-respected by Paris’ upper class in this craft, one of his clients being Napoleon’s wife. A specialist in this area had to custom-make all boxes to fit the goods they stored and had to personally load and unload these boxes for their rich clients. At this time box-making and packing was a highly respectable and refined craft. Louis Vuitton (1821-1892) started his training apprenticing with a successful box-maker and packer named Monsieur Maréchal in 1837 in Paris.
