The next twoSpring 2027

Two silhouettes on the bench now — a thin eight-sided frame and a true circle, both cut from the same Japanese acetate. The list sees them first, and prices are set when they leave the bench.

Also on the bench: the house’s first luggage, in the colours of the house. Owners see it first, then the list.

Chapter IV — The Coffret

The
Coffret.

Coffret — French for the little chest a jeweller trusts with what matters. A true miniature trunk: a rigid wooden carcass, hand-wrapped in vegan leather printed with the radial in complete spectrum, ring by ring, so no two panels ever sit quite the same. It closes with a single PS clasp in solid polished brass — one button, the monogram itself, machined by hand — under brass studs and mitred brass corners. Inside, soft lining the colour of the house; underneath, your edition number stamped in gold foil. Entirely vegan. Every material in it — wood, brass, leather — recyclable, made to be remade.

It carries three ways: the wide PS-embossed shoulder strap, the slim crossbody strap, or bare, in the hand, as a minaudière. A pair of frames rides inside — though nobody will blame you for carrying nothing in it at all.

How it is made

Every piece,
one bench.

The stitch

Real footage from the bench. Every seam is run one panel at a time, the operator turning the piece by hand through the corners — the only way the radial lands true where two panels meet.

The cloth

Real footage from the cutting floor. Every panel is struck from the full width in one pass, so the grain runs the same way on each face of the piece.

The PS clasp on the Coffret Azur released, showing the plate, swing bar, side catches and lock

The clasp

The PS clasp starts as solid brass stock, held in the vice, filed and polished by hand until the monogram reads clean. Released, the whole mechanism shows: the plate, the swing bar, the two side catches and the lock beneath.

Mitred brass corner cap, side catch and studs on the Coffret Azur

The brass

Mitred brass caps at every corner, brass studs along the band. The hardware takes the wear, so the vegan leather does not.

The radial: the PS mark set ring by ring, in full spectrum, out from the centre

The radial

The radial is printed into the vegan leather ring by ring, in complete spectrum, and set out from the centre of the panel so the pattern lands true where two panels meet.

The monogram embossed across the tan lining of the Coffret Python print

The lining

Inside, the monogram repeats across the full lining. Nothing is left plain, including the parts only the owner ever sees.

The house behind it

Not a first attempt.

Chapter V — The Craft

Gold, where
it matters.

Japanese acetate, cut deliberately thick — you feel the difference the moment you pick a pair up. Milled and hand-finished in Bangkok. Gold hinges, the PS signature in gold on every front, and your number laser-written inside the temple — where only you will find it.

The PS pattern down the temple of the Square, and the gold PS mark

The pattern, engraved · PS001/B

The gold PS mark set into the temple of the Aviator

The mark

Every frame is checked against its drawing by hand before it earns a number. If it drifts a tenth of a millimetre from the plan, it never leaves the bench. The gold PS mark is the last thing to go on.

The PS pattern cut into the temple of the Square

Cut, not moulded

Milled from solid Japanese acetate — never injected, never rushed — then tumbled and hand-polished for days until the surface holds light like glass. The PS pattern is cut into the temple, repeating the full length of it.
