PADI is a diving company 

which has helped remove 

1,829,940 plastic bottles 

from the ocean – equivalent 

to 26,588kg of plastic, 

through a range of products 

that are made from 

recycled ocean plastic, 

from towels to rash guards 

to face masks. As well as 

offering diving certification 

training, open water and 

scuba diving courses, PADI 

offer real-life mermaid 

experiences! PADI mermaid 

courses allow your special 

gift recipient to live out a 

fantasy of life under the sea. 

The programme teaches 

the fundamentals of diving 

safely with mermaid 

equipment and costuming 

along with basic diving 

skills. No dive experience 

is necessary and children 

as young as 6 years old can 

become a PADI Mermaid 

with classes in the UK. 

Beyond the fun and wonder of mermaiding is a much deeper 

purpose – PADI Mermaids are a voice for the ocean as inspiring

EFFORTLESS GLAMOUR 

Luxury Leisure 

Alexandra Llewellyn’s 

beautifully crafted, 

intricately detailed games 

turn play into something 

magnificent. Alexandra’s 

first encounter with 

backgammon was as a 

child in Cairo. In the city’s 

backstreets, she enjoyed 

her first games with an 

elderly local. Born in a 

completely different time 

and place, they were still 

able to enjoy the game, 

and each other’s company, 

because backgammon 

requires no common 

language to understand. 

The wonderful universality 

of the game, which 

transcends cultures and 

generations, planted 

the seed for Alexandra 

to create her first handpainted 

backgammon 

boards. 

Alluding to the importance of geometry to the game, the Geometrix 

Backgammon Set in Satin Walnut wood box features a recurring pattern 

of shapes and symbols, realised in intricate wood marquetry. £13,500
