Creating the illusion of a straw bale made into a bag, the “Paï” model in natural raffia displays exceptional creativity and artisanal prowess. Drawing inspiration from luggage-making techniques, the bag features a wooden case that has been sculpted by a cabinetmaker, then covered with smooth leather and topstitched with plant fibers. The bag’s full-leather interior demonstrates careful attention to detail. With its shoulder strap, the bag can be worn short or long, on the shoulder, or as a crossbody. The name “Paï” comes from the French word “paille” (meaning “straw”), in tribute to the bag’s botanical inspiration. Limited edition of 100 bags.

● As a particularly fragile material that evolves naturally over time, raffia requires gentle use and care. To preserve the model’s original appearance, use care when wearing it. Avoid rubbing anything against the raffia and prolonged exposure to direct light or heat. Keep the bag away from water, greasy substances, perfumes, and cosmetics, as well as from dark or new clothing, as the dye may bleed. If the leather becomes wet, absorb excess liquid by dabbing gently with a soft cloth and then let dry. Do not overfill the bag. Store it in its dust bag and box.
