Know before you buy
The interior is designed for essentials. It comfortably holds a large smartphone, a slim wallet, and a lipstick or small compact.
The sculptural wooden chain is a fixed design element of the bag, intended to serve as both a functional strap and a decorative feature.
Because this piece is handcrafted from natural textiles, it is best to keep it away from direct moisture and harsh chemicals. If it needs cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to gently spot-clean the fabric surfaces.
No, the bag features a single open compartment to maintain its structured, sculptural silhouette. It is best suited for items you can easily reach into.
The wooden base provides necessary structure and durability to the minaudière without adding excessive weight. It ensures the bag keeps its shape while remaining comfortable to carry throughout the day or evening.
