“Salamandre” N° CO-076
"Intuitions" Range / Theme Nature This piece asserts itself powerfully. A duality between passion and harmony, strength and growth. A true favorite for this practical and elegant wallet model.
Its story
"Salamandre" doesn't go unnoticed. It plays on a dynamic of contrasts, both chromatic and textural. Chromatic between the blood-red, which evokes passion, energy, and strength, and the emerald green, reminiscent of nature, growth, and harmony. And textural between the finely crafted jacquard weave of the wrap and the raw linen fabric on one side, and the smooth poplin and faux leather on the other side.
With these dualities, the floral pattern at the heart of this piece, usually considered old-fashioned, becomes resolutely modern.
I had a real crush on this practical wallet model, named “En Ville”, whether in this Mini version or in its regular version, to the point that I made several, including for myself, which rarely happens.
Pair it with the “Nostalgie” Shoulder Bag in the same theme.
