John Walker & Sons XR 21 × Vietnamese Master Artisans

Platinum winner, MUSE Design Awards 2023.

April brought international sophistication, rooted in Vietnamese culture and art history, to John Walker & Sons XR 21. For Tet, Phap Lam artisan Do Huu Triet crafted the packaging with the ancient Phap Lam enamel technique, a craft once reserved for the Hue royal court and lost for centuries.

The collection continued with silver artisan Quach Phan Tuan Anh, a master of a silver craft that has itself become rare: an East-West fusion of a Western brand and Eastern heritage.
