About Peregrino
Peregrino is a handmade leather wallet for seasoned travelers. It offers an easily accessed passport compartment and an outside pocket for the boarding pass.
The whole story
After launching an espresso cup with Milan and a wall clock with Robocut Studio, Baron’s third collaboration ended up being with Corinne Wilde. Baron decided to partner up with local artisans and creators in order to launch exclusive high quality products in limited quantity. "This is our way to celebrate local design and producers while helping them reach a wider audience throughout the world", said Nelson Roberge, co-founder of Baron. This is why, in January 2014, the media has been given an English platform to connect with international readers online.
For Corinne Bourget, founder of the Corinne Wilde brand, this project is a good opportunity to stand out and try something new: "I decided it was about the right time to expand my product line for men, because there’s been a growing interest from male customers towards my products lately."
Baron’s creative partnerships
Since September 2013, Baron has been working with local artisans in order to offer exclusive high quality products in limited quantity. This has all been set in motion in order to support independent local talent. Since then, Baron has made a wooden espresso cup with Milan and a wall clock with Robocut Studio.
