“Traces” N° CO-006

A wallet made from a babywearing wrap in a gradient from blue to violet on the outside and black, pink, and petrol poplin on the inside.

"Intuitions" Range / Theme Nature Enchanting colors, a rich texture to the eye and under the fingers... a piece that blends refinement with rusticity. A true favorite for this practical and elegant wallet model.

Its story

This very chic piece is composed on the outside of certified organic leather from BioKreis/IVN/Ecarf and a piece of Made in France fair trade and organic cotton babywearing wrap. The interior is made of 100% organic cotton satin.

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.

Where do the fabrics and leathers used in Studio Créatif pieces come from?

As a rule, these are never the fabrics you entrust to me for a bespoke piece: those remain yours alone. The only exception: sometimes a client explicitly gives me her offcuts and asks me to find them a new life elsewhere. In that specific case, and only with her agreement, they may end up in a Studio Créatif creation.

Outside of these particular cases, Studio Créatif pieces come from my own research: rescued leathers, fabrics found at flea markets or second-hand, dormant stocks from luxury houses, offcuts from high-end leather goods... I choose and combine them following my inspiration of the moment, with no specific order behind them.

Find out more about my materials on the Soulful Values page.

What are the delivery timeframes?

All orders (excluding custom orders) are shipped within 24 hours (excl. weekends and public holidays), carefully packed and tracked.

The delivery time then depends on the chosen shipping method (Mondial Relay or Colissimo) and the delivery location (France or abroad). Delays may occur due to reasons beyond my control (e.g., related to the carrier).

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.
