COPENHAGEN-based LIÉ STUDIO and New York-based LESSE announce the launch of The Balm Case Pendant, a limited edition collaboration designed to transform a self-care essential into an effortlessly wearable object.
An exploration of form, function, and everyday ritual, The Balm Case Pendant reframes lip care as an intentional daily practice: made to be worn close to the body and perfect for on-the-go touch-ups.
LIÉ STUDIO x LESSE
Defined by LIÉ STUDIO’s signature focus on timeless leather pieces, the pendant perfectly encases the LESSE Soothing Lip Balm. Crafted in 100% Italian leather—repurposed excess material from LIÉ STUDIO’s latest collection—and produced at a female-owned facility in Portugal, the piece reflects an uncompromising commitment to material integrity and longevity. An adjustable leather cord allows for versatile styling, while subtle engraving of both brands marks the object as a considered union of design and formulation.
Available in Black, Taupe, and Dove Blue, the Balm Case Pendant embodies a shared philosophy: that essentials, when designed with precision and intention, become enduring.
LIÉ STUDIO x LESSE
Every pendant includes a complimentary LESSE Soothing Lip Balm — formulated with omega-rich oils, antioxidant compounds, and nourishing emollients to deliver sustained relief to dry, compromised lips. A perfect pair, the balm and its case exist in dialogue: utility elevated through craftsmanship.
Hailing from Copenhagen and New York, respectively, LIÉ STUDIO and LESSE were inspired to collaborate through a mutual dedication to restraint, longevity, and purposeful design that transcends cities and continents. The result is a collectable object that blurs the line between accessory and ritual: a forever piece designed for daily wear.
