The story of the Triomphe

The Triomphe motif dates to 1973, when founder Céline Vipiana created an interlocking-C chain emblem said to be inspired by the chains around the Arc de Triomphe. Hedi Slimane made it the house's signature hardware from 2018, and it remains central under Michael Rider. On Triomphe canvas, check the corners and edges; on leather, look at the clasp for scratches. Our guide on whether Céline bags are worth it covers value, and every piece is graded on our Condition Guide.
