Choose designs by Lotus Arts de Vivre to project exquisite beauty and timeless artistry. Inspired by the treasures and cultures of south-east Asia, each artifact is fashioned in a remote sub-continental village, by craftsmen commanding skills indigenous to the region. Created in rare and prized materials, every piece is as unique as the discerning buyer who chooses to own it. Adorning the surfaces of this gorgeously tactile handbag are sections of cowrie shells – for millennia, a symbol of womanhood, fertility, birth and wealth. Polished to a porcelain-like gloss, these beautifully dappled sea jewels are fixed in star formations with an iridescent pearly globe at each centre and point. Coated bamboo construction maintains the bag's stiffened shape; slide open the lid to access the effects you've sequestered in the velvety main interior and side compartments. Measures 19 x 14.5 cm and is packaged in a Lotus Arts De Vivre quilted cotton bag.
