    Cork handbag vegan dragonflies in Dark Blue

    590CRC

    Quantity: 2 (available)

    This cork handbag vegan black with flowers has a unique design with natural materials.

    TWO IN ONE HANDBAG

    Turn the handbag over to one of the two different fabric patterns and depending your daily or situational mood use one or the other side. The fabric of the cork handbag vegan black with flowers represents a Japanese traditional fabric. The cork comes from Girona, Catalonia (Spain) because we try to use as much as possible regional materials.

    As we have a close connection with our products we do our own designs in Barcelona and are continuously improving and re-inventing them in our workshop hands on, depending the influences which surround us in Barcelona and Berlin. The handbag design is almost unique to a certain number of pieces as we rely in most of the cases on fabric which we find and take advantage for our production.  

    In our designs we always look for a combination and good balance of practicality, comfort and modern design.
