The Évelyne model is a highly versatile handbag, equally suited to casual wear and more relaxed formal occasions. Its origins can be traced to historic equestrian saddle bags, in which riders carried small necessities and treats for their horses. From this functional heritage derives the characteristic perforated “H” motif; on the original bags it provided ventilation for the contents, whereas today it serves as one of the model’s most recognisable design signatures. The present example combines high-quality, durable Barénia calfskin with robust starched canvas, sometimes referred to as crinoline. This considered pairing of materials lends the bag a natural lightness, a timeless aesthetic, and excellent practicality.
