Its story

“Birds hide in a forest at dusk, their brilliance enhanced by vibrant orange leather for a celebration of life's contrasts in this practical little clutch.”

Although I don't personally use pouches or handbags, this pattern, with its graceful curves and harmonious proportions, inspired me to explore this path. Moreover, it's a format that allows for the reuse of fairly small scraps while remaining entirely functional.

Near Perfect?

Very low price (normally 205€) because it suffered a small unfortunate scissor cut just as it was being finished, there is a small hole in the lining which has been repaired and is barely visible, see photo.

Common questions

"Will this style really suit me?"

If a piece draws you in, it already resonates with you.
We are never one-dimensional: it might reveal a side of your personality still waiting to shine.

Where do the fabrics and leathers used in Studio Créatif pieces come from?

As a rule, these are never the fabrics you entrust to me for a bespoke piece: those remain yours alone. The only exception: sometimes a client explicitly gives me her offcuts and asks me to find them a new life elsewhere. In that specific case, and only with her agreement, they may end up in a Studio Créatif creation.

Outside of these particular cases, Studio Créatif pieces come from my own research: rescued leathers, fabrics found at flea markets or second-hand, dormant stocks from luxury houses, offcuts from high-end leather goods... I choose and combine them following my inspiration of the moment, with no specific order behind them.

A bold piece often becomes your signature.
It pairs beautifully with a simple outfit and naturally draws compliments.

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.
