Doing Good and Looking Even Better
Cesta bags have been celebrated in Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, but the brand’s story is as compelling as the designs. Each piece begins its journey in the hills of Rwanda, where talented female artisans weave sisal into baskets. The handcrafted process continues in Italy, where each basket is transformed into a handbag using traditional techniques. Founded by two fashion industry veterans, Cesta Collective also has a strong environmental story.

Masterpiece Within a Masterpiece
For the ultimate in quiet luxury, escape to 1 Place Vendôme, Paris, an intimate boutique hotel in an 18th-century building that houses luxury jeweler Chopard. Bearing the name of a gemstone, each room or suite is exquisite, but the true masterpiece is a secret sanctuary showcasing a Winter Garden by Fantini Mosaici. Here, a captivating landscape of peacocks, butterflies, monkeys, pandas, exotic birds, and tropical flowers awaits. Thousands of hand-cut tiles in sapphire, ruby, emerald, and gold tones adorn the walls, while turquoise stones form a mosaic floor that unfurls. The hotel might embody whisper-quiet luxury, but the Winter Garden is a stunning display of beauty and craftsmanship.
