概要

Pinel & Pinel is a French luxury trunk maker founded in Paris in 2004 by Fred Pinel. The house designs and handcrafts contemporary trunks, leather-covered cases, and leather goods entirely in its Parisian workshop in the 20th arrondissement, positioning itself as a modern interpreter of the French malletier tradition.

The brand is best known for transforming the classic travel trunk into functional contemporary objects: cigar trunks holding up to 1,400 cigars, watch trunks, bar trunks, picnic trunks, gaming and hi-fi trunks, including a leather-sheathed mixing console with built-in digital amplification. Every creation is made to order, with full customization of colors, materials, sizes, shapes, fittings, and functions across a palette that includes 51 shades of leather, crocodile, and shagreen. A single trunk typically requires three to six months of workshop time.

Pinel & Pinel has produced commissions and collaborations for houses including Diptyque and Christofle, as well as private clients; a trunk created for Michael Jordan to house 23 pairs of Air Jordan sneakers sold at auction for 57,000 euros. Alongside trunks, the house offers bags, small leather goods, and accessories.

Sales are through the Parisian atelier, the brand's website, and select luxury retailers, with bespoke commissions arranged directly with the house.

Pinel & Pinel takes the traditional French trunk and asks a genuinely clever question that most heritage malletiers never bother to ask: what should a trunk actually hold in the twenty-first century? The answer, cigar trunks, hi-fi trunks with built-in amplification, bar and picnic trunks, treats the form as a functional design problem rather than a purely nostalgic object, and that reinvention is what separates the house from competitors simply replicating nineteenth-century travel trunks with contemporary materials. Full customization across 51 leather shades plus exotic skins, combined with three-to-six-month build times, signals genuinely bespoke production rather than a made-to-order veneer over standardized components. The Michael Jordan sneaker trunk auction result is a useful, concrete data point for the brand's ability to command serious prices for genuinely original commissions, and collaborations with houses like Diptyque and Christofle show the atelier can execute to other brands' creative briefs as well as its own. This is a genuinely niche, collector-oriented proposition rather than an everyday luxury goods brand, and pricing that requires direct inquiry reflects a bespoke market where value is inherently harder to benchmark than at fixed-price houses.
