TWENTY-SEVEN FACES

5 000.00 

“Twenty-Seven Faces” is a box of 25 serialised photographic prints, realized by photographer Francis Delacroix.
Designed by Babe Luther, the box itself is a work of art: a black leather slim suitcase contains a series of accessories, taking inspiration from Francis’s own travel habits and experiences.
This is a unique piece, only one copy produced.
The box is designed to be used after its purchase.
As soon as it arrives at your doorstep, open it, read the LP-sleeve inspired booklet, take out the prints, frame them, pack your brand-new suitcase and go off wandering, since you already have Francis’s absolute essential items inside.
A steel razor, a fountain pen, a frame for your most heartfelt picture, a small pill-holder, three Moleskine journals, a Marine Band Harmonica in the key of E flat, 20 Davidoff cigarettes inside a steel cigarette holder, and a lighter.
Honestly, what else do you need?
