£3395

The Orient Medium Check-In evokes the spirit of grand voyages, drawing inspiration from the iconic elegance of the Orient Express and the golden age of rail travel. Handcrafted in England, this four-wheel case blends refined functionality with the artistry of time-honoured techniques. Its striking exterior features multiple layers of hand-applied Urushi lacquer, a revered Japanese craft using natural sap from the Urushi tree. Cured over time, the lacquer develops a high-gloss finish with a depth and richness that subtly shifts with the light. Only a handful of master artisans can produce this

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as GLOBE-TROTTER GROUP LIMITED, number 05145800. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
