leather wallets and accessories at its London

workshop, sourcing all materials from reputable

Products are intended to last for life, and each one

features hand-sewn, heavy-gauge stitches – a

signature mark of the brand. Store your transport

essentials in one of the travel wallets (£85), or stash

your currency in the cash wallet (£65) or card holder

(£45). Customers can choose the type of leather,

thread colour and fastener material, and add initials

or an inscription.

Lounge around

AIR FRANCE HAS RELEASED designs for its

upcoming lounge in Terminal 2F at Paris

Charles de Gaulle, set to open at the end of

this year. The space is being designed by

Parisian firm Jouin Manku and will be located

in the centre of the two boarding areas of

Terminal 2F. The 3,500 sqm lounge will cater

to Air France’s Business and Flying Blue Elite

Plus customers departing on or connecting to

a medium-haul flight within the Schengen

area or a domestic flight. “At the heart of the

lounge, a ‘runway view’, a huge curved window

with a view of the sky, will reinforce the

impression of being in a bubble of serenity at

the heart of the airport,” commented

designers Patrick Jouin and Sanjit Manku.
