Designed by Dutchman Henk van de Meene, the HENK suitcase is made up from red Italian burl, black ebony, horse hair, magnesium, aluminum, titanium, carbon fiber, parachute fabric and is dressed in supreme quality leather.
The carbon-fiber exterior is very similar to the cockpit of a Formula 1 racecar. !
The suitcase has been designed in such a manner that when dragged it is practically weightless. Even when it is fully loaded a pressure of just 25 grams is exerted on ones fingers.

G.Lorenzi, the only still family-owned shop on Milan’s famous Via Montenapoleone, is perhaps the most civilised retail space in Europe.
This Lorenzi special edition set, contained in a “Chancellor of the Exchequer budget” red calf leather case, comprises a chrome plate cast steel tong with hand-turned Makassar ebony handles polished with bees wax and a chrome plate brass stopper turned from a solid bar with a Makassar ebony top.
A ball-bearing connection between the stopper rings makes for a satisfyingly smooth action. Reputed to keep champagne unimpeachably fizzy.
