The history of this Hermès suitcaseis linked to the early 20th century, a period of transition from carriage travel to automobile and train travel.
The Golden Age of Travel
- Origins of Hermès:Founded in 1837 by Thierry Hermès, the Parisian company began as a manufacturer of high-quality harnesses and saddles for the European aristocracy, quickly earning a reputation for excellent craftsmanship.
- Transition to Luggage:With the decline of the equestrian era and the advent of modern travel, Émile Hermès, grandson of the founder, recognized the need to diversify production. In the early 1900s, the company began creating trunks and suitcases, even collaborating with Ettore Bugatti to create custom luggage for his automobiles.
- Design and Materials:The tan leather suitcase with brass hardware, like the one pictured, is a classic example of this period (probably 1930s-1950s). It was handcrafted using the durable "sellaio" stitch (still a Hermès trademark) and fine leathers, with particular attention paid to the audible click of the locks.
- "AF" Personalization:The initials "AF" are not part of the brand, but are a typical customization that wealthy customers requested for their luxury luggage.
