Vessel Bag no. 4 of 10 | Unisex Designer Bag |
The Vessel Bag Collection is a limited series of ten individually handcrafted shoulder bags. All ten pieces share the same construction and overall design language, while each bag differs through its combination of 1970s denim, leather and cotton.
A central design element of the collection is the horizontally banded body. Each bag is assembled from parallel courses of salvaged material that run across the front and continue around the sides, so the seam lines rather than any print carry the pattern. The body widens from a narrow opening towards a broad base, giving the bag its rounded, vessel-like volume.
This particular piece is the most graphic of the series. A band of perforated golden-yellow leather sits between two courses of mid-blue denim, and the perforation gives the leather a fine, almost woven texture up close. A white zip runs along the lower denim band and the flap closes onto two dark buttons in a denim tab. The strap is olive webbing with a navy leather wrap, and the back is worked in warm tan cotton. Yellow against washed indigo is the sharpest contrast in the collection.
The bag sits flat against the body and can be worn long across the chest or shortened to sit at the hip. The strap adjusts through a metal ring, and the wide base gives the bag its volume without adding bulk.
