RESTORATION OF AN EXCEPTIONAL MOYNAT TRUNK

AUTOMOTIVE SPECIAL ORDER

Moynat automobile trunk

 

It is increasingly rare to find  trunks that surprise us. This Moynat trunk bought in the center of France in the countryside is a good example. Left abandoned  in an attic for several generations, its very original shape surprised and immediately seduced us. This trunk was placed on the foot step of the car following the shape of the wheel fender.  

  

The  outer canvas  was very dirty, we restored it with the greatest care.

The polishing  brass , one of our  specialties. Example with this  patented solid brass lock.

  

The   right clasp was  broken , so we manufactured,  welded  and shaped  the missing part, keeping the original part as much as possible so that this trunk retains all its  authenticity . 

BEFORE, DURING, AFTER:
