Polene Sole

From Polène’s Plèi collection, the 'Solé' bag showcases innovation and artisanal craftsmanship by transforming leather off-cuts into 240 soft, pebble-like pearls. Threaded onto waxed cotton cord and secured with 120 hand-tied knots using traditional macramé techniques, this net-inspired summer bag is completed with a smooth leather base and handle. A removable interior pouch adds functionality, while each pearl’s unique marbling ensures every piece is one-of-a-kind.

• Each pearl is unique, with distinct marbling; initial leather scent fades after a few uses—allow the bag to air out outside the dust bag before first use

• Care: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct light or heat; keep away from greasy substances and cosmetics; sensitive to water and moisture—if wet, air dry without rubbing; avoid contact with light-colored clothing
