Berluti and Le Petit Prince: A Journey to Seoul

On 4 November, Berluti transformed its space at Lotte Jamsil Avenuel into a celebration of the world of Le Petit Prince. At the heart of the event, a scenography inspired by Saint-Exupéry’s beloved tale showcased creations born from the encounter between the author’s work and the Maison’s craftsmanship. In the background, a recreation of the writer’s desk, specially crafted in leather by Berluti, evoked his presence. Alongside it stood one of the 99 limited-edition La Pléiade volumes, bound in Venezia leather.

Another highlight of the evening was a live patina demonstration by one of the Maison’s colour artisans. Working on pieces of leather previously engraved with motifs inspired by Le Petit Prince, the artisan guided guests through the different stages of this savoir-faire, from the presentation of the leather to the application of colour. Two distinctive patinas took centre stage: one capturing the warm shades of the Fox’s fur, the other revealing the luminous golden reflections of Berluti’s Golden Patina.
