Description
 
In the words of the founder and publisher, Wilfried LeCarpentier, "The Authentik book collection was born out of a desire to explore beauty and craftsmanship in every domain and in whatever price bracket. The books describe the aesthetic essence of a city, homing in on modern-day artisans who strive for perfection and whose approach to their work is as spiritual as commercial. Written by specialist authors, the guides delve deep into the heart of a capital and, as a result, are excellent companions for both locals and nomadic lovers of fine living."

"Their neat size, made to fit into a suit or back pocket, make them an easy and discreet to consult, and their elegant design and insider selection of addresses will ensure that you get to the heart of the local scene and blend in perfectly with it. There is even a notebook at the back for cerebral scribbling of your own. In all, Authentik Books are the perfect accessory for uncovering the exceptional, whether in the arts, fashion, design or gastronomy."

"Chic London is for the discerning travelers with an eye for the unusual and a hankering after off-the-beaten-track treasures. It's feisty fashion and design stores, fine dining in extraordinary settings, intimate cafes and clubs off the main thoroughfares, and quirky cultural spots capture the city's outre elegance."

In our words, these little books are chic and clever and just beautifully designed. The illustrations by Alain Bouldouyre done in pen and watercolor are absolutely stunning and inspirational. These books make wonderful gifts for new graduates, new retirees, friends who love to travel or for yourself prior to your next excursion.
