You think the Louis Vuitton is oldest French trunk-maker? Now think again, Louis Vuitton was founded in 1854, while another designer brand Moynat was first opened in 1849.

Moynat might not be as famous as Dior or Chanel, but they’ve designed automobile luggage for famous brands like Bugatti, Boisin, Binder and Labourdette.

And today we’re going to feature their most classic handbag, it’s named after the founder – the Moynat Pauline Bag.

If you’re a bag collector, you will need this to complete your collection. But it is also a nice everyday bag to use for work and after-work.

The Moynat Pauline Bag is crafted by their own artisan and we read that they only have limited staff. So each bag is hand-made from the start to the finishing and they’re controlling each and every step.

Their quality and design are comparable to luxury brands like Hermes, but then without the ‘buzz’. It’s a great bag for the unique fashionista that wants to distinguish herself from the big crowd.

Now for the details; the bag is made from Taurillon Gex Leather, but you can also choose exotic leather like crocodilians. It comes in single or bi-color like black and burgundy mix. Besides the long handles, you can also wear it cross body with the detachable/adjustable shoulder strap that’s included.
