Its story

An ode to rebirth, to remind us that even after the coldest winters, life always finds a way to be reborn and flourish. The soft colors of this piece suggest tender herbs and freshly blossoming trees.

I hand-painted this silk scarf in my tender youth, and it regularly adorned my mother's neck for the 30 years that followed. Two years ago, she entrusted it to me to transform.
From it, this bag, a wallet, and a pouch were created and put up for sale. I'm keeping the last remaining scraps for myself, for a personal project that I haven't determined yet.

I have a special affection for this bag model, with its proportions and lines immediately captivating me, to the point that I made several versions, which is a rare occurrence.
From now on, I will only create this model as a custom-made commission.

Near Perfect?

Significantly reduced price (normally 600€) due to some minor cosmetic defects (light blue marks on the vinyl, an unfortunate ironing mishap on one of the handle attachments, a word showing through the scarf at the back), and a small hole in one of the bottom corners that happened at the very last moment.

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.
