Le Monde Beryl

Inspired by the spirit of adventure and the rich cultural patchwork of the Silk Route, Le Monde Beryl is a luxury accessories brand based in London and founded by friends Lily Atherton Hanbury and Katya Shyfrin. Launched in 2015 with a new take on the classic Venetian gondolier's slipper, Le Monde Beryl now includes mules, kitten heels, boots, etc. The name Le Monde Beryl references a family of gemstones that includes Emerald, Aquamarine, Morganite and Heliodor, long considered talismanic to travellers and artists. It also pays homage to the pioneering aviatrix and adventurer Beryl Markham, who was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic from East to West.
