Archive 26/008 is a tactile Leather journey through the late 20th century, curated into a single, unrepeatable silhouette. The design centers through the transformation of tiny scraps of leather that have been re imagined into a new flower.
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: “Here at Luxury Scraps I always thrive in finding the best way to rescue discarded remnants, and this new technique of reviving this leather scraps and creating tridimensional flowers with it is the actual proof. Its striking and bold colors don´t go unnoticed, and reminds us how the forgotten can have a new life again.” E.B.
