C

omprising two models, Round Scales and Mixed Scales, this collaboration shines a light on parts of the alligator hide that are often overlooked in favour of the most uniform sections. More pronounced textures, freer scale patterns and a material whose character is fully revealed through a design shapedby its natural relief.

True to the understated and timeless spirit of both Houses, the collection features a flat construction, raw-cut edges and discreet finishes, allowing the natural richness of the leather to take centre stage.

A material with a distinctive character, impeccable craftsmanship and a certain Parisian elegance, mastering the art of understated style.
