Goyard Releases Limited Edition History Book in Personalized Trunk

Posted on: Jun 22

Luxury Parisian luggage brand Goyard is releasing a limited edition book celebrating its history. This hefty tome comes packaged in its very own bespoke trunk.

The book reportedly "resonates with and celebrates the golden age of luxury travel, from horse-drawn carriages to the great transatlantic ocean liners." It was crafted using traditional letterpress techniques, and printed upon watermarked and custom made vellum paper. Art publisher Devambez helped Goyard put together this truly special publication.

Goyard is a favorite amongst real life royalty and fashion's elite, with the Grand Duke of Russia, the Duke of Windsor, and Karl Lagerfeld all proud owners of Goyard cases. I wonder whether any of these luminaries will snap up one of the 233 numbered books.

Goodness knows, they're probably the only ones who can afford the whopping price tag of around $7250. Before you choke, that price does buy an individualized trunk. All are custom made to order, with clients able to choose one of 12 colors, their monograms, stripes, and other embellishments. Of course, Goyard will jack the price up if your individual details are more opulent than the norm.
