Stepping into Polène’s Champs-Élysées store reveals a setting that is as serene as it is majestic, with its dramatic columns. The two-story 450m2 space was designed by architectural firm WGNB. Curves flow throughout the ground floor, from the domes to the rounded furniture. Minimalist shelving crafted from hand-cut Italian travertine displays the brand’s collections of leather goods. Sculpted in oak, the tabletops are covered with compressed leather off-cuts. This leatherwork extends all the way to the checkout counter, which is covered in LeatherStone® by Hors Studio’s Elodie Michaud and Rebecca Fezard. The design and research duo invented a new material, transforming leather into stone to achieve a mineral appearance.
To showcase Polène’s jewellery creations, Clémentine Debaere-Lewandowski has designed a display case composed of 500 pieces of white stoneware created from casts of rocks taken near the brand’s production workshops in Ubrique. These landscape fragments captured on-site convey the ephemeral beauty of nature.
The store’s spiral staircase invites visitors to explore more creations on the upper floor. There, a curved Marianna Ladreyt sofa features interwoven leather cylinders. Polène’s jewelry is displayed on a striking table designed by Clémentine Debaere-Lewandowski, featuring 500 pieces of white stoneware imprinted with various rock textures found near the brand’s Ubrique workshops. These earthy fragments serve to ground the ephemeral character of nature. These collaborations with French creators reflect Polène’s enthusiasm for celebrating artisanship.
A permanent workshop has been set up on the upstairs—not unlike those run by Polène in Ubrique, where traditional expertise is passed down through the generations. Here, a leather-working artisan demonstrates this savoir-faire, sharing the meticulous process that brings the hand-crafted leather flowers to life. This intimate setting highlights the human touch of “hand-made”, bringing the spirit of Polène’s ateliers right into the heart of Paris.
Workshop opening hours:
Monday, Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday: 11 am to 7:30 pm
The central staircase leads down to the Atelier de Curiosités, an exhibition open to the public free of charge (by reservation only). It offers an entertaining and multi-sensory behind-the-scenes dive into Polène’s universe of creation: visitors can observe, smell and listen to the skill and precision of artisans at work as well as the brand’s creative exuberance.
