Its story

This piece is made from a babywearing wrap fabric with a soft and rich texture that showcases a lovely bird on a branch pattern, combined with scraps of equally soft and supple lambskin leather.

A vibrant and modern cocktail to accompany you on all your outings.

I really love this little bag, so cute and incredibly stylish. So much that I made another version, “Orange Klein”.

Near Perfect?

Reduced price (normal price 355€) due to a minor defect (the leather decorative panel on the front is not perfectly straight and has an extra stitch), the joy of prototypes!

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.

Common questions

How long does it take for a custom piece?
The time it takes will greatly depend on the complexity of your request, the availability of components, and my schedule, which varies depending on the time of year. On average, expect between 4 and 10 weeks. The quote I provide will contain an accurate estimate of the timeline, and I commit to responding as accurately as possible to your requests, while respecting the creative and production process.
What materials do you use to make my pieces?
Your sentimental fabric or leather is always at the heart of the project. For the rest, here is what I use by default:
  • Exterior (beyond the fabric you provide): salvaged leather by default (cowhide, lambskin, goat, pig…); optionally: certified organic cotton canvas, cork on 100% cotton backing, Nisiar (grape marc "leather")… No faux leather, ever.
  • 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, antique gold, chrome, gunmetal, antique bronze, copper/rose gold, matte black, rainbow… Special colours available on request (extra cost and lead time).
  • Handles & straps: leather, canvas, your own fabric (if enough quantity), cork… in simple or bi-material styles. Or pre-made strap in 100% organic cotton or polycotton, plain or multicolour, per brief.
