CARRE ROYAL, a leather accessory brand from Paris, France, will open pop-up shops in Tokyo and Osaka to celebrate its official arrival in Japan.

From November 27th to December 11th, the shops will be located on the 1st floor of Isetan Shinjuku (women's goods section), on the 1st floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi (Ginza Style Fashion Items), and from December 4th to January 7th, 2014, on the 1st basement floor of JR Osaka Mitsukoshi Isetan (women's goods section).

The shops will feature card holders, wallets, and other items from the "Auteuil Collection," which uses natural full-grain leather, considered the finest leather material and which retains its natural surface texture.

Carre Royal was founded in 1950. The company produces collections using carefully selected high-quality leather from top tanneries (leather manufacturers) mainly in France and Northern Europe, and its products are currently sold in department stores and select shops mainly in the US and Europe, such as Galeries Lafayette and The Conran Shop. The company's relationship with top tanneries has continued for nearly half a century since the workshop was founded, and it has established a solid position in the French leather industry. The company also handles the interiors of some of Europe and the US's most luxurious car manufacturers.
