“Ô Benestar”  CO-131

A shoulder bag made of black and caramel leathers, red and black velvet upholstery fabric, and red and black satins.

"Cogitations" Range / Collection Memory A tribute to my favorite restaurant, reflecting its refined Occitan cuisine full of contrasts. A chic and functional bag that leaves no one indifferent.

Its story

I designed this piece as a tribute to this restaurant that I have been visiting regularly for the past 3 years with my mom, reflecting its refined Occitan cuisine full of contrasts.

The shape subtly evokes the venue's totem animal, and the colors are reminiscent of its walls. The Occitan cross has been delicately embossed in trompe-l'oeil on one of the faces.
The materials used are noble and sourced from upcycling: 100% natural leather jacket and skirt, 100% silk satin from dormant stocks of a haute couture house (Sonia Rykiel)...

In the end, it's a chic and functional bag that doesn't leave anyone indifferent.

Common questions

"I like it, but I already have plenty of bags."

This one isn’t “just another bag”: it’s a true work of art with a soul and a story, not a simple accessory.

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.

What do you do with your production offcuts?

Your own bespoke fabric offcuts aren't covered here: they're always sent back to you with your finished piece, unless you tell me to keep them or dispose of them differently.

As for my own production offcuts: nothing is thrown away if I can help it. They're reused in my workshop for reinforcement, worked into mosaics to create larger pieces, or used as is for small creations (keychains, bookmarks...). The rest is given away depending on its nature and size: to other artisans (such as jewellery makers), or to associations, community centres and schools for their workshops.

Is it possible to order a custom piece?

In addition to the original creations offered on the website and created on inspiration, I offer an on-demand solution to create pieces that match your emotions, designs that reflect you. To achieve this, I've created the Bespoke Service.

Through this service, I offer to create a piece that reflects you, using your sentimental fabrics, fabrics from my stock, or even fabrics I find specifically for you. My creativity and expertise, combined with your imagination, have no limits.

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.
