Welcome to the Vintage Luggage Company,
a business established in 2005 specialising in rare and vintage
pieces from the Houses of Louis Vuitton, Goyard, Oshkosh, Hartmann
and others from around the world.
150 years ago, beautiful luggage artfully
designed and expertly crafted by famous trunk makers of a bygone
era were an obligatory requirement for the wealthy upper classes
whilst they undertook fantastic journeys to exotic locations
and foreign destinations. "Getting there was not as important
as how you got there".
The luggage also needed to exude an
air suitably reflecting the privileged circumstances of the
blue-blooded aristocracy who formed the travelling elite.
French trunk makers Louis Vuitton and
Goyard both designed and crafted trunks of unparalleled quality
and inimitable style. Expertly and painstakingly constructed
by hand from metal, timber, leather and brass, these trunks
were highly sought after and favoured by royal families and
international high society alike.
In modern times these exquisite and
eclectic pieces of luggage are best enjoyed as stunning decorator
pieces in the home and office arena.
Steamer wardrobes and courier trunks
are perfectly proportioned as beautiful coffee tables, cabin
and hat trunks make ideal side tables or blanket boxes at the
base of the bed. The Vintage Luggage Company offers an impressive
choice of authentic Louis Vuitton,Goyard, Hartmann, Marshall
Field and Oshkosh vintage luggage.
Our aim at the Vintage Luggage Company
is to enhance the aged beauty of these exceptional trunks without
tampering with their originality. Therefore, while the trunks
are meticulously cleaned and the brass fixtures fastidiously
polished to a lustrous glow, we refrain from adding new "spare
parts". This ensures the integrity of each trunk remains
intact and its potential as a valuable investment item is unrestricted.
To experience first-hand the grace
and character of these precious pieces from the past, please
visit our showroom in Double Bay where a unique selection awaits
you.
