In my Garden
Share
This collection takes root in the Black Forest of the mid-18th century, where time moves to the rhythm of cuckoo clocks and fairy tales whisper between the trees. Inspired by nature’s quiet transformation, these bags are designed to age beautifully - like ancient timber, growing richer with time.
Their forms echo the textures of the forest: flaps as crisp as autumn leaves, leather as soft as a deer’s coat, and solid structures that rest on the shoulder as effortlessly as fallen bark on the forest floor. Large buckles conceal a quiet mystery, like a cuckoo waiting to break the silence.
Each bag carries the name of a tree from this landscape - Douglas Fir, Elm, Hazel, Larch, Linden, Juniper, and others - an ode to the towering figures that inspired their shapes, textures, and colors.
A collection shaped by childhood memories - Hansel and Gretel, enchanted woods, the ticking of old clocks - where the passage of time only deepens their charm.
