Design and Craftsmanship
The bag is built around a leather structural frame consisting of a circular base, vertical leather supports, and a reinforced rim with metal grommets. This construction allows the leather to carry weight and tension while protecting the woven textile panel.
The textile itself is woven using supplementary pattern threads inserted during weaving rather than printed on the surface. This technique produces the crisp geometric motifs and subtle relief texture characteristic of traditional Indonesian tenun textiles.
Condition
This vintage piece remains unused. The textile panel is crisp, the interior lining is clean, and the stitching is intact. Minor storage scuffs are visible along portions of the leather rim from age and handling, but these do not affect the structure or usability of the bag.
Care
- Condition leather periodically with a neutral leather conditioner
- Spot clean textile only
- Store filled with tissue to maintain shape
