Robb Report Malaysia, IWC Schaffhausen and Santoni celebrate masterpieces

Pure craftsmanship

On a sunny afternoon, guests of Robb Report Malaysia rolled into the beautiful Le Nouvel KLCC, a freehold residential development of two towers and collectively designed and imagined by Jean Nouvel, Herve Descottes, Patrick Blanc and Koichiro Ikebuchi. Guests ascended to the 34^th floor and were welcomed by sommelier Yuhei Teraoka and the fresh fruitiness of Louis Roederer champagnes and crisp sparkling Perrier.

Here, high above the Kuala Lumpur urbanscape, guests enjoyed a private viewing of Santoni’s artisan-crafted leather accessories and footwear. They were shown the Santoni artisans’ exclusive techniques of mixing natural colours and water to create beautiful shades.

This leather was also seen in a display of IWC Schaffhausen’s range of timepieces at Le Nouvel. Among them were the Portugieser – the first collection to sport Santoni straps – the Pilot and most recently, the Da Vinci collection of this year, including the flagship IWC Da Vinci Perpetual Calendar Chronograph (RM180,000).
