"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.

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

Why are there "Near-Perfect" items and what are they?
As part of my sustainable view of the modern luxury fashion, creating as little waste as possible is central. You can learn more about this on my Soulful Values page.
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.
Do I need to register to make purchases on the online store?
It's not necessary to have an account to place an order on this website.

The delivery time then depends on the chosen shipping method (Mondial Relay or Colissimo) and the delivery location (France or abroad).
