Moynat is one of the oldest trunk manufacturers, founded in Paris in 1849 by Pauline Moynat, five years before Louis Vuitton. The two companies worked in direct competition, both offering travelling trunks of a very similar quality.

Today however, vintage Moynat trunks are more rare than Louis Vuitton examples, as the company ceased production for much of the 20th century. The brand was revived after being bought by LVMH in 2011.
