Our Story

Vaincourt was founded in 2011 from the imagination of a daring and demanding female fashion entrepreneur, who partnered with a talented leather goods craftsman, based in the French Limousin region, "Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant" (Living Heritage Company).

At the helm is Sophie Gachet, a luxury enthusiast who gained her expertise at Louis Vuitton and TAG Heuer.

'As the granddaughter, daughter and sister of artisans, I am deeply committed to showcase French craftsmanship and the art of handmade work. There's much talk about re-industrialising France: let's be proud of our talents! I love the idea of creating elegant, creative and minimalist accessories of the highest quality, designed to last for years.'

What motivates me: working in a small, committed team, all focused on the same goal and fully engaged in the action.
