"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 ThĂ© (Noir)”, “Mille Toffees”, “Traces”, “Art DĂ©co Sylvestre”, “Art DĂ©co Gris”, “Belle en Jean”, “Joyaux Aviaires”, “Prism Paon”, “Arc-en-ciel dans l'Ombre”, “Spectre”, “Martin PĂȘcheur”.

Looking for smaller? Check out these versions: “Art DĂ©co EnsoleillĂ©â€, “Red Obsession”, “Broderie SuĂ©doise”, “CrĂ©puscule Estival”, “Exoplanet”, “PointillĂ©s Masculin FĂ©minin”, “PrĂ© Fleuri”, “Salamandre”, “Vanille Melba”.

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

Common questions

Do you ship internationally?

I ship to France and outside the European Union. Other European Union countries are not served at the moment.
If your country is eligible but does not appear in the list, please contact me at hello@marie-alhomme.com or by phone at +33(0)661356222. With your complete details, I will provide you with a final invoice that you can then pay by bank transfer or credit card.

What is the protective pouch included with the bags?

Every bag I create comes with a bespoke protective pouch, made by hand in my studio.

This isn't throwaway packaging, it's a permanent accessory, meant to be used every day to store your bag when you're not using it, protect it from scratches and dust, or keep it safe when travelling.

It's made in organic cotton satin, sewn to the exact dimensions of your piece, with an organic cotton drawstring to close it. It's branded Marie Alhomme.

For wallets, coin purses, and smaller accessories, I wrap the piece in tissue paper produced locally and sustainably (Papeteries de Montségur, Loire), rather than in a pouch.

How long does it take for a custom piece?

The time it takes will greatly depend on the complexity of your request, the availability of components, and my schedule, which varies depending on the time of year. On average, expect between 4 and 10 weeks. The quote I provide will contain an accurate estimate of the timeline, and I commit to responding as accurately as possible to your requests, while respecting the creative and production process.

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.
