Pantone Hard-Sided Luggage To Go With The Pantone Luggage Tags. What A Trip.

News has broken that Pantone Universe has designed a series of hard-sided luggage, the latest in a long, long list of Pantone-inspired products (I have over 20 posts on Pantone and Pantone-inspired products, just use the search box at the top of the blog or the one in the side bar and type in Pantone).






No word yet on when or where the suitcases will be available and exactly which styles, but like all Pantone Inspired products, I'll be sure to keep you posted!

Pantone Universe presently has two types of luggage tags that would go nicely with these hard-sided Pantone travel bags:

The two types of Pantone Luggage tags shown above are presently available here and here

Thanks to Taxi for bringing these to my attention.

Color Me Christmas! 10 New Pantone Christmas Ornaments.

I've been waiting for these for awhile. Almost made them myself last year. Finally, Pantone Universe has come out with Christmas ornaments made by Studio Badini Createam for Selab. So far, I can only find them at Seletti, but I hope they'll be making their way to the US soon. Made of glass, the Pantone Xmas Balls are available in ten different PMS colors.

Last minute update: Although, according to Seletti, these will not be available until Christmas of 2012 - you can find limited numbers of these for sale online now at charles and marie and Colette












Don't forget there are many other fun Christmas-related Pantone items like wrapping paper, cards and bags and Christmas inspired Pantone Posters

Ah, the Sweet Smell of Design. Pantone Candles. Pantone Toothbrushes, Too!

Ah, so that's what PMS 15-5217 smells like.
Pantone Universe (the company behind the Pantone Matching System of colored inks) just keeps pumping out the products - this is actually my thirteenth post on Pantone-related products.

The latest Pantone-branded item for the home from the color inks standard are scented Pantone candles in three sizes and 10 PMS colors. Apparently the candles are created by Belgium-based Ilanga for Pantone and like many of the their products for the home, they do not seem to be available in the US, at least not yet.











Although there is a dedicated website, it is not up and running, but you can purchase some of the candles at Vinçon (only Honeysuckle and twilight) and at Colette (where they carry 7 of them in two sizes).

Pantone Toothbrushes & Pantone Contact Lens Cases

In addition to the candles, other new offerings from the Pantone Universe are Pantone Toothbrushes in a set of five and Pantone Contact Lens cases.
