Drawing inspiration from the opulent allure of an 80s beauty kit intertwined with the timeless grandeur of Place Vendôme, this artistic creation radiates an exquisite fusion. Beyond its exterior, the gift pack unravels as a cotton pouch, woven from 65% recycled materials, destined to serve as a versatile travel companion. Boldly embracing the paradigm shift, Hélène Poulit-Duquesne, the visionary CEO of Boucheron, proclaims, “No pack is the new pack,” channeling the Maison’s unwavering commitment to transformation.
Embarking on an audacious mission, the esteemed company sets its sights on diminishing its environmental footprint by a staggering 40% before the dawning of 2025, demonstrating an unwavering devotion to sustainable practices and a future teeming with promise. Boucheron ventured into uncharted terrain by embracing aluminum, revered for its association with aeronautics, luxury artifacts, and opulent luggage, this remarkable metal possesses a trifecta of virtues: feather-light, robust, and aesthetically captivating. However, its most compelling attribute lies in its innate eco-friendliness, as it harmoniously intertwines with the wool felt chosen by Boucheron to cradle its exquisite creations. Felt, on the other hand, requiring neither glue nor stitching, which fosters recycling. Soft yet resilient, this organic fabric bestows tender protection upon even the most delicate designs, presenting each masterpiece against an enchanting backdrop of emerald green.
In pursuit of sustainable development, Boucheron meticulously handpicked wool certified under the esteemed Responsible Wool Standard (RWS), elevating their commitment to conscientious sourcing. However, the Maison’s visionary prowess transcended the realm of materials, for it embarked on a bold quest to revolutionize jewelry presentation itself. The customary act, deeply entrenched in the tapestry of proposal customs, witnessed a remarkable metamorphosis. Shedding the antiquated trappings of a multi-piece, non-recyclable hardware-laden hinged cover, Boucheron bestowed upon the world an evolved and streamlined case-opening system, befitting the zeitgeist of modernity.
