Louis Vuitton’s checkered Damier pattern has been a staple of the fashion house since 1888. It was created by Louis Vuitton’s son, Georges Vuitton, as a way to combat counterfeiting and protect their brand and designs. The original canvas-based Damier checkerboard pattern was called “Damier Ebene,” which featured the classic brown and beige checkerboard design on a dark brown background.
The Louis Vuitton Damier checkered pattern has become a timeless symbol of luxury, quality, modernity, and sophistication in fashion. The classic style is often seen gracing some of the most iconic bags from Louis Vuitton such as the Speedy bag or Keepall bag. Today, it remains one of their most recognizable motifs that can be found on many vintage pieces from this legendary fashion house.
