Job description

Founded in 2016 by three siblings, the French Maison Polène creates leather goods that blend minimalism with creative exploration, offering distinctive signature shapes crafted through exceptional artisanal know how. Our leathers, sourced exclusively from certified Italian and Spanish tanneries, are sculpted into organic forms, folds, draped effects, and braids. Production is entrusted to the artisans of Ubrique, Spain, a renowned hub for high end leather craftsmanship where all of Polène’s métiers come together.

Since 2023, Polène has also developed a new field of expression: jewelry, with thematic collections inspired by nature, from the movement of wind to rock like textures carved into the material.

The Polène story can be written with you. Join us in store and contribute to this adventure at the heart of our flagship, where a passionate team works to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
