"Intuitions" Range / Theme Heritage Bold colors and patterns inspired by the Rococco artistic movement, for a sophisticated and edgy piece. An elegant and practical wallet model.

Its story

This model is composed of upcycled materials: scraps from a previous project, surplus from Haute Couture, and a piece of a beautiful silk scarf.

This wallet model seduced me with its elegant yet highly practical design. I've made a few of them, which is still relatively rare for me, but when I want to match a bag with an accessory, I find this one very relevant.

To match with the coordinated “Classique” Tie.

There are other versions in the shop as well.

Near Perfect?

Reduced price (original price 320€) due to an excess (subtle but present) of glue on the lining of the upper flap and hesitant stitching on the leather overlay of the rear pocket.

Common questions

Can I place an order by phone?

You can contact me by phone at +33(0)661356222, and I will provide you with a final invoice that you can then pay by bank transfer or credit card.

“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.

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.

What do you do with your production offcuts?

Your own bespoke fabric offcuts aren't covered here: they're always sent back to you with your finished piece, unless you tell me to keep them or dispose of them differently.

As for my own production offcuts: nothing is thrown away if I can help it. They're reused in my workshop for reinforcement, worked into mosaics to create larger pieces, or used as is for small creations (keychains, bookmarks...). The rest is given away depending on its nature and size: to other artisans (such as jewellery makers), or to associations, community centres and schools for their workshops.

This is all lovely,
but do you want something that's just yours?

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.
