SUSTAINABLE

Eco-conscious

PADI is a diving company

which has helped remove

1,829,940 plastic bottles

from the ocean – equivalent

to 26,588kg of plastic,

through a range of products

that are made from

recycled ocean plastic,

from towels to rash guards

to face masks. As well as

offering diving certification

training, open water and

scuba diving courses, PADI

offer real-life mermaid

experiences! PADI mermaid

courses allow your special

gift recipient to live out a

fantasy of life under the sea.

The programme teaches

the fundamentals of diving

safely with mermaid

equipment and costuming

along with basic diving

skills. No dive experience

is necessary and children

as young as 6 years old can

become a PADI Mermaid

with classes in the UK.

Beyond the fun and wonder of mermaiding is a much deeper

purpose – PADI Mermaids are a voice for the ocean as inspiring

advocates dedicated to protecting the deep blue

EFFORTLESS GLAMOUR

Luxury Leisure

Alexandra Llewellyn’s

beautifully crafted,

intricately detailed games

turn play into something

magnificent. Alexandra’s

first encounter with

backgammon was as a

child in Cairo. In the city’s

backstreets, she enjoyed

her first games with an

elderly local. Born in a

completely different time

and place, they were still

able to enjoy the game,

and each other’s company,

because backgammon

requires no common

language to understand.

The wonderful universality

of the game, which

transcends cultures and

generations, planted

the seed for Alexandra

to create her first handpainted

backgammon

boards.

Alluding to the importance of geometry to the game, the Geometrix

Backgammon Set in Satin Walnut wood box features a recurring pattern

of shapes and symbols, realised in intricate wood marquetry. £13,500
