About Goyard
Goyard dates its history to 1853, when François Goyard took over a Paris trunk-making business. The house is known for Goyardine, its chevron-patterned coated canvas introduced in 1892, and for painting customers' initials and stripes by hand.
Goyard bags are light and durable; look at the leather trim, the handles and the corners. Any personalisation is part of the piece and is stated on the listing. Each listing states the condition grade and what comes with the piece.

Questions
Goyard Answered
What is the difference between the Goyard Saint Louis and the Anjou?
Both are open totes of the same shape. The Saint Louis is Goyardine canvas outside with a canvas lining; the Anjou is reversible, with canvas on one side and leather on the other.
How does Luxury Club authenticate Goyard pieces?
Every piece is physically inspected by our specialists before it is listed: construction, hardware, materials and markings are checked against what is expected of the maker and the era. Nothing is approved from photographs alone, and every sale includes a Certificate of Authenticity documenting what was verified on that specific piece.
