INES BRESSAND | Akamae Crumpled Woven Bag N.40・Black

A sculptural crumpled woven bag with flowing, asymmetrical lines.

Hand-shaped during the weaving process without molds, the form evokes soft water-like ripples. The slightly tapered base provides a spacious interior, perfect for everyday use.

Finished with a large black vegetable-tanned leather handle, the bag brings a modern and natural elegance to summer styling.

＊Woven by artisans in Ghana using traditional techniques, without the use of molds, ensuring that each piece is unique. Some pieces are reshaped and finished by hand at Inès Bressand’s studio in Saint Pierreville, France. The leather handles are also handmade and sewn in France.

＊Pennisetum Purpureum Natural Fiber

Also known as elephant grass, this wild grass is hand-harvested and sun-dried in the Ghanaian savannah without chemical treatment. Variations in color and texture reflect the natural beauty of each piece.

＊＊Vegetable-Tanned Leather

Made from French cowhide and tanned naturally using plant extracts like oak bark.

The process preserves the leather’s natural texture and allows it to age beautifully over time.
