brocade floral / 05

A collectible object from a limited series of seven.

Crafted from vintage brocade in soft gold and lavender tones and finished with extraordinary rayon fringe discovered among decades-old stock at Britex Fabrics in the 90's in San Francisco. The fringe can no longer be sourced, making each piece impossible to reproduce exactly.

Only enough of this brocade remained to create seven objects in total. Each bag is cut from a different section of the fabric, ensuring no two are alike.

Handmade in California.

Designed to be carried, collected, and eventually passed on.
