Four shapes, in two colours.

A small range, considered shape by shape: the work tote, the everyday shoulder bag, the weekender and the crossbody. Each comes in Tan and in Bordeaux, which makes eight products in all.

The detail that holds

The handle joins a brass ring and a stitched leather tab. It is the part of the bag she touches most, so it is where the care shows first.

From hide to finished bag

Five steps, in order. The process shown is the concept for the atelier, to be confirmed with the leather house.
