Jean Cassegrain, founder of the Longchamp brand, began in the 1930s/1940s in Paris by manufacturing high-end pipes wrapped in leather. The models, in classic or exotic refined leather, arouse the interest of customers. Particularly appreciated by soldiers of the Allied troops, these pipes were gradually sold in stores supplying American bases around the world and became luxury items. Sales of these leather-wrapped pipes are exploding. The Longchamp brand was born in 1948. In the 1950s, the company, which only marketed smoking products such as cigarette cases, gradually shifted to leather goods and the manufacture of leather accessories.
