HERMÈSThe company's original harnesses are still being made in the atelier on the upper floor of the first store in Paris. The company is proud of its origins as a harness workshop, and at the same time, the warmth of its attitude toward its craftspeople is evident in the way it wants them to approach their work with pride.
Few maisons pay as much respect to the craftsmanship as Hermès, and the company's commitment to leather in particular is extraordinary. The "Leather Forever" exhibition, which toured the world to great acclaim, is a good example. As the name suggests, the exhibition spotlighted leather, and the exhibition was intended to reveal the charm of leather, which Hermès loves, from more than 10 different angles.
The leather produced in this way cannot be bad. In this respect, the notebook classic "Ulysse" is an excellent research material. The Ulysse Nardin, with its simple design and snap closure, allows you to fully appreciate the potential of the leather.
The leather is Vaux-Togo, an extremely supple calf with a dense grain that is the face of Hermès. The chic and colorful colors are typical of this long-established French company. The company's attitude of trying to accommodate the user's lifestyle by offering a wide range of sizes is also good.
The newest addition to the Ulysse Néo lineup is the Ulysse Néo, a new version of the Ulysse Néo with additional storage space, including a card pocket.
Luxury in daily life" is a life credo that is always spoken by sophisticated people, and if this is the case, nothing beats Hermès when it comes to notebooks that are always close at hand and can be touched.
