“D'or et de Charbon”  CO-091

A zippered card and coin holder made with black and gold marbled babywearing wrap fabric and matte black cork.

"Intuitions" Range / Theme Geometry A great combination of contrasts: gold with charcoal, rich fabric with smooth and matte cork, geometric and straight assembly with the anarchy of the pattern. A true favorite for this practical and elegant wallet model.

Its story

When I thrifted this babywearing wrap, I wanted to play with contrasts: between the preciousness of gold and the simplicity of charcoal, between the rich and shiny texture of the fabric and the smoother, matte texture of cork. This led to a very geometric, very straight assembly to oppose the anarchy of the pattern and materialize one last contrast.

I had a real crush on this practical wallet model, named “En Ville”, whether in its Mini version or its regular version, to the point that I made several copies, including for myself, which rarely happens.

Also discover those versions: “L'heure du Thé (Noir)”, “Mille Toffees”, “Traces”, “Art Déco Sylvestre”, “Art Déco Gris”, “Belle en Jean”, “Joyaux Aviaires”, “Prism Paon”, “Arc-en-ciel dans l'Ombre”, “Spectre”, “Martin Pêcheur”.

Looking for smaller? Check out these versions: “Art Déco Ensoleillé”, “Red Obsession”, “Broderie Suédoise”, “Crépuscule Estival”, “Exoplanet”, “Pointillés Masculin Féminin”, “Pré Fleuri”, “Salamandre”, “Vanille Melba”.

Near Perfect?

Slightly reduced price (normal price 328€) because I'm not completely satisfied with the cork/fabric assembly.

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.
