Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.

It is a beautiful vintage suitcase. 
However after having examined the photos very carefully we have come to the conclusion that it is not an original Louis Vuitton soft suitcase.

There are some details which jump into my eyes when examining the photos. The colours of the leather work and look of the leather does not look right after usage. It should have been darkened by the normal grease from the hands. The leather work looks too light and bright. The metal work does not have the right colour either. It is supposed to be made of brass and all the details should be marked LV which they are not. The labels also look slightly off compared to original Louis Vuitton bags. The way the stiches are sown are not the way Louis Vuitton make their stiches. An finally on the sides you see the VL logo cut in half/with stiches - this is not usually done by Louis Vuitton - their logo is always intact and centered on their bags.

It is still a nice suitcase however as we believe it to be a fake Louis Vuitton soft suitcase we do not give an estimate.

I am very sorry for the unfortunate news. 
 Please let me know if you have any additional questions. I’m happy to help. 
Thank you
