Its story
This piece is the companion to the coordinated “Nostalgie” Shoulder Bag.
Like the bag, it draws on the Art Deco style and symbolizes modernity, progress, and sophistication. This timeless and ultra-chic piece plays with retro and modern elements, mixing traditional materials (leather, Merino, silk) with more technical ones, clean lines, and complex patterns reminiscent of the early 20th century.
You'll take pleasure in caressing the soft and shiny scarf and admiring the grain of full-grain leather.
I had a great crush on this satin scarf, which I had been looking for a long time with little hope since it was produced in very small quantities. When the opportunity arose to acquire one, I didn't hesitate because I already knew it would make a beautiful “Nostalgie”.
I felt the need to revalue the scraps from this creation, and a wallet seemed like the perfect project.
The leather comes from a colleague's leather workshop who no longer needed the scraps from which it was made, and this is even a scrap of scraps...
I've had this pattern for 2 years, without finding inspiration for it for a long time. I'm glad it finally came to me; this model is versatile and elegant.
