"Intuitions" Range / Theme Geometry An homage to tradition through noble materials, derived from ancient craftsmanship. A true favorite for this practical and elegant wallet model.

Its story

An homage to tradition through noble materials, derived from ancient craftsmanship: cork on organic cotton denim and handwoven babywearing wrap.

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

Match it with the “Oh So Chic!” Convertible Bucket Bag.

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.

Common questions

"I’m afraid someone else will buy it while I’m hesitating"
Each piece is unique.
I can send more photos or offer a short reservation option to give you time to decide.
Where/How are they made?
I make all my products in my workshop in the city of St Just St Rambert in the Loire department (42). I use several machines depending on needs: a professional sewing machine, an industrial sewing machine, a serger, a press (for eyelets, rivets, etc.), an iron press, and a manual skiver.

I carefully choose my technical supplies (interfacings, hardware, etc.) and some innovative materials (such as cotton-backed cork or silicon faux leather) from trusted suppliers.

My other fabrics and materials are mostly upcycled and come from renowned babywearing brands, dormant stocks from Haute-Couture/High-End houses (clothing and furnishings), scraps from High-End leather goods houses, as well as "seconds" from specialized boutiques (especially for faux leather) or from personal collections found at flea markets or on specialized second-hand websites.
