The Maison’s history is replete with doing things in a way that can be appreciated only by the most discerning traveler, including precise hand painted detailing that can be commissioned through their studio in Paris and their method of angle stitching, a Moynat specialty for over 150 years.

The Malle Macaron By Moynat

French gastronomy meets Parisian artistry in this bespoke macaron trunk inspired by the “Entrepneu” trunk created by Moynat in the 1900’s to transport the spare tyre of an automobile. With a lid that spreads like the wings of a lady bird, the Malle Macaron incorporates Pierre Herme’s famous delicacies into its design with leather in the same cassis color that is reminiscent of his celebrated Ispahan macaron.

La Malle Bicyclette By Moynat

The Bicyclette Trunk is reminiscent of the English countryside and a world where detail and attention were paid to even the most basic accessories. A compact tapered trunk with a signature curve in deference to a bicycle wheel, the La Malle Bicyclette is a masterpiece in elegance.
