Its story

Close your eyes and hear the lapping of the waves on the beach.

This hand-painted silk scarf belonged to my mother, and its various shades of blue with darker spots due to the salt already perfectly evoked the sea and the foam.
So when I discovered this model with its pleats, I instantly had a vision of this sentimental fabric embodying the surf.
I paired it with a royal blue cork offcut with a rich yet smooth texture.

Compact, ultra-chic, and practical with its thin shoulder strap, it's perfect for carrying the essentials.

Charlotte’s baby wrap

After ordering a bag from stock, Charlotte realized it would be too small. I offered to make her a custom, larger version, and she sent me her baby wrap to transform.
