Luxury doesn’t always come in large packages — and MAISON de SABRÉ’s latest release is proof.
The cult Australian accessories house, known for its minimalist silhouettes and saturated leathers, has just unveiled its newest drop: the SABRÉMOJI Padlock Charm ($89.00), a luxe little accent with a surprising amount of personality packed into its petite frame.
Far from your average bag trinket, the charm features a working brass padlock mechanism and is engineered to chime softly as it moves, a tactile, wearable expression of MAISON de SABRÉ’s obsession with craftsmanship and detail.
It’s designed to bring both style and light security to any carryall, belt loop or keychain, and is available in five dual-tone colourways inspired by the brand’s bestselling hues.
Crafted from upcycled leather offcuts sourced from their full-grain handbag production, each charm is as sustainable as it is stylish, giving new life to luxury materials that might otherwise go unused.
It joins the brand’s already iconic SABRÉMOJI™ Fruit Charms ($75.00), which rose to cult status after being spotted on the arms of celebrities like Blake Lively, Alessandra Ambrosio and Kristen Bell.
Each fruit charm, whether a lemon, strawberry or pineapple, is hand-cut, hand-stitched, and assembled in full-grain DriTan leather, maintaining the plush texture and colour saturation MAISON de SABRÉ is known for.
The charms reflect a growing appetite for micro-accessories that blend high design with a hint of play.
As Creative Director Omar Sabré put it,:“We’re building objects that invite self-expression — little luxuries that say something about the person carrying them.”
For those curating a charm stack or looking to add a subtle spark to their wardrobe this season, this might just be your lock-and-key moment.

Foster + Partners has opened its first comprehensive exhibition in Australia, Civic Vision, showcasing more than five decades of the practice’s global architectural work.
Staged inside Parkline Place, the studio’s latest Sydney project developed by Investa on behalf of Oxford Properties Group and Mitsubishi Estate Asia, the exhibition highlights the firm’s contribution to civic architecture, urban environments and infrastructure.
Gerard Evenden, Head of Studio at Foster + Partners, said: “We are delighted to be putting on this first-of-its-kind exhibition in Sydney – a city we have been working in for more than 25 years. This is a fantastic opportunity to reflect on our holistic approach to civic architecture, which has underpinned our work since the 1960s, and continues to evolve to meet the challenges of today.”
Partner Muir Livingstone added: “It is a great privilege to showcase the practice’s work in Parkline Place – a project that we have been working on for the past six years – and the new home for our Sydney studio.
“Our projects in the city exemplify the civic and sustainable approach that the exhibition centres on. From our first Sydney project, Deutsche Bank Place, which features a four-storey public plaza at its base, to our work for Sydney Metro, which is transforming the way thousands of people travel across the city.”
The exhibition is organised around three themes – Community + Culture, Living + Working, and Planning + Mobility – and features Australian projects including Deutsche Bank Place, Salesforce Tower and Parkline Place, alongside international works such as the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank Headquarters, the Reichstag German Parliament, and the soon-to-open Zayed National Museum in Abu Dhabi.
Since the 1960s, Foster + Partners has expanded its approach beyond technological innovation to encompass social and environmental design, producing masterplans for carbon-neutral cities and civic infrastructure that prioritise light, clarity and connection.
Civic Vision runs until 21 December on Level 2 of Parkline Place, 252 Pitt Street, Sydney. Entry is free and forms part of the Sydney Open festival program.
