Heritage: Red Since 1876




Since its founding in 1876, Maison LANCEL has stood out for its bold spirit and exceptional craftsmanship. Among its most iconic signatures, red holds a place of prominence, symbolizing both the brand’s heritage and identity.









The Origins of LANCEL Red




LANCEL’s choice of red dates back to its origins, when the Maison, located at 20 Passage des Écuries in Paris, was designing accessories for smokers. Refined pipes and cigarette holders were then accompanied by cases in red leather, a shade already synonymous with passion and elegance.









An Iconic Colour Through Time



Over the decades, red has become much more than just a colour for LANCEL. It has established itself as a true common thread, linking the Maison’s creations to its origins. From ribbons to gift boxes, linings to the leather of its iconic designs, red has gradually infused every aspect of the Maison’s universe.









Red in Iconic Collections


Several of LANCEL’s iconic bags have been elevated by this distinctive shade. Models such as Premier Flirt, Charlie, Origami, Ninon, and Angèle proudly showcase the signature red, enhancing their unique and timeless character.










LANCEL Red Today


Today, red is inseparable from LANCEL’s identity. It embodies the soul of the Maison, reflecting its heritage while symbolizing its dynamism and modernity. More than just a colour, LANCEL red is a statement of elegance and passion, carrying forward a tradition that transcends time.

Since 1876, LANCEL red has remained a timeless signature, bearing witness to the Maison’s excellence and bold spirit.
