The Japanese edition of "Louis Vuitton Manufactures," originally published in French and English by Assouline in February 2022, has been available since April 15, 2022. This special book shines a spotlight on the artisans who craft Louis Vuitton's exceptional creations in its ateliers and maisons.

"Louis Vuitton Manufactures" is a book filled with the Maison's cultivated ideas.

Within the ateliers, traditional techniques and tools, unchanged since the company's founding, are used to learn, honor, and pass down savoir-faire. Here, tradition is constantly challenged through innovation.

The book spotlights the artisans who express their talent through trunks, bags, fragrances, watches, shoes, high jewelry, and ready-to-wear, connecting founder Louis Vuitton's methods and savoir-faire to the present day. It is a tribute to Louis Vuitton's ateliers and the craftspeople who work within them.

Louis Vuitton's ateliers, in pursuit of specialized skills and the exceptional craftsmanship found in various regions, extend beyond France to Geneva, Fiesso d'Artico, and even Texas—areas renowned for their historical charm and natural beauty. This volume showcases the artisans' skilled hands alongside the stunning locations and architecture of the ateliers, accompanied by specially commissioned photographs.
