Small in size, unforgettable in presence — our mini bags are designed to turn refined craftsmanship into a statement you carry effortlessly. We have curated and worked in partnership with our skilled artisans in Peru to propose beautiful color and handles combinations, so that you can always celebrate refined craftsmanship through a compact, yet sculptural silhouette, those that you don't find everywhere!
In this article I will introduce you with two of our statement models, made of natural fibers:
1) The Petite Alma
The Petite Alma Collection is defined by its distinctive handles — from architectural wood forms to sculptural acrylic accents — Petite Alma blends artisanal tradition with modern elegance. The result is a small bag with striking presence: polished enough for elevated occasions, yet versatile enough for everyday wear. It is lightweight, expressive, and where timeless spirit meets refined versatility in beautiful proportions.
We have different models to choose from in regards to the handles' materials:
- Petite Alma "Le Cadre" comes with rectangular wooden handles. Its name was inspited but its clean and structured style.
- Petite Alma "Inti" is named after the Inca sun god. Its gentle arch of its wooden handles evokes the rising sun — warm, balanced, radiant.
- Petite Alma "Perla" is inspired on pearls (perla in Spanish). A nod to the sculptural, bead-like handles that feels almost like jewelry for the bag.
- Petite Alma "Marea" is inspired in ocean tides (Spanish for tide). The fluid tortoiseshell acrylic handles feels organic and flowing, reminiscent of Peru’s Pacific coastline — modern yet nature-inspired.
2) The Riviera Pop Mini
This mini bag is quickly becoming our best sellers and we love that you love it! This statement bag is a celebration of color, craftsmanship, and effortless summer spirit.
The Riviera Pop Collection is also one of the best representations of our Brand values, that rely on Versatility. As you know, it comes in size Mini, and in size Medium.
With The Riviera Pop Mini, you have two interchangeable straps: a wooden beaded strap for a bold, artisanal touch, and a chain strap accented with premium faux-suede for a more refined, elevated look. Wear it crossbody, over the shoulder, or carry it as a standout accessory from day to night.
You can fit inside your essentials like your phone, credit card wallet, keys, sunglasses...it's technically mini but you can actually fit in many things. The Riviera Pop Mini is made to accompany sunlit escapes, city evenings, and every moment in between — a small bag with unmistakable presence.
