Archive 25/011 is an exploration of light and tactile duality. The piece is built around a flap of archival eco-fur, chosen for its wild, crimped texture and soft cream hue, contrasted against the deep, structured finish of a repurposed italian manufactured suede from 1970s. The piece is signed with the signature Scrap Flower—a hand-constructed bloom of Italian suede, hard leather and vintage metal hardwarre.
Hidden within is a moment of archival luxury: an internal pocket crafted from vintage golden brocade, a material typically reserved for 20th-century evening wear. This bag is a labor of 'Archival Upcycling' created by designer Emanuele Bianco—a unique assembly of history that can never be replicated."
The designer personal note: “These browns are just my favorite colour palette during winter. It warms up your mood-the earthy tones are just perfect to remind ourself with the connection with the planet”.
