About Delvaux:
Founded in Brussels in 1829, Delvaux is the oldest fine leather goods house in the world, crafting and designing without interruption in its workshops since then.
Delvaux is the inventor of the modern handbag, having filed the first-ever leather handbag patent in the world, in 1908.
Among its extremely rich archive of over 3,000 designs, Delvaux’s emblematic creations include The Brillant (1958), The Tempête (1967), The Pin (1972) and The Lingot (2022).
Steeped in emblematic addresses around the world, from Saint-Honoré to New Bond Street to Fifth Avenue, all 55 Delvaux boutiques are different.
Official purveyor to the Royal Court of Belgium since 1883, Delvaux has always shared and celebrated Belgian cultural references and values.
