Archive 26/002 is a tactile Leather journey through the late 20th century, curated into a single, unrepeatable silhouette. The design centers through the contrast of a burgundy fox fur and mink fur with a leopard print motif.
Completed with our Signature Archival Bloom Charm in leather and 1980s vintage gold hardware, this piece is a labor of 'Archival Upcycling' by designer Emanuele Bianco. It is not merely a bag, but a fragment of history saved from the past to be carried into the future."
Designer´s note: “I found this extremely rare piece of mink fur remnant in a vintage shop in southern Italy, as a central piece to this red long hair fox fur. The mink fur has been printed with a distinctive leopard print. This was an extreme luxurious item between 1950s and 1960s because Leopard fur was extremely expensive and later banned, so furriers masters decided to create a printed version in mink. It was championed by the likes of Hollywood stars and aristocrats.” E.B.
