Common questions

Is it made to order or in stock?

Always made to order — there's no stock. Each piece is crafted after your order, in the materials you choose (yours or mine). The usual lead time is 4 to 6 weeks in total depending on the complexity of the design.

What are the finishes?

For leatherwork designs, the exterior of your piece is cut according to one of three finishes — each giving a distinct personality to your sentimental fabric:

  • Signature: organic, fun and full of life. The fabric pieces are cut in free shapes inspired by my visual identity. Perfect for small scraps, or for a piece that sparkles.
  • Plénitude: generous, rounded patches. The fabric fills the space with softness and serenity, for an elegant, calming result.
  • Contradictions: intermediate, straighter, more geometric shapes — deliberately playing against the curves of the bag or wallet. An intentional graphic tension.
What materials do you work with?

Your sentimental textile or leather is always at the heart of the project. For the rest, it depends on the type of piece.

For leather goods:

  • Exterior (beyond the fabric you provide): by default salvaged leather (cowhide, lambskin, goat, pig…); optionally: certified organic cotton canvas, cork on 100% cotton backing, Nisiar (grape marc “leather”)…
  • Lining: 100% cotton poplin, cretonne or satin (organic where possible), 100% linen canvas, wool or wool-silk blend…
  • Interfacings (by design): certified organic cotton batting, Decovil Light or Heavy, Texon, Jeffitex…
  • Hardware: metal only — gold, chrome, gunmetal, matte black… Special colours available on request (extra cost and lead time).
  • Handles & straps: leather, cotton or polycotton plain strap, your own fabric (if enough quantity), single-material by default. Bi-colour/bi-material available as an option.

For textile panels:

  • Backing: 30mm polystyrene foam, double-sided adhesive;
  • Frames: wood, glass, plastic, depending on what I find or what you provide, hung by default, freestanding as an option;
  • Accents: poplin, cretonne, satin, wool, canvas... in cotton, linen, wool, silk, etc.
