There's just something about
the feel and look of old leather luggage.
The patina and wear bring exotic places to mind.
Who has carried it?
Where were they going?
Romance or business?
Ingenue or seasoned traveler?
A tourist in France...
or on African safari...
vintage luggage holds a fascination for me;
it's an inspiration.
iconic trunks of a bygone era
In the cargo hold of a transatlantic liner,
...or in a sleeper car on a European Express.
...think Hercule Poirot and Agatha Christie
What treasures of lace and linen...
furs and jewels,
did they contain?
personalized...
monogrammed with identification
for the worldwide traveler
lasting a lifetime and beyond.
repurposed for everyday living
A French trademark
