Its prototype quickly found a new life thanks to an exchange with French-Mexican jewelry artisans, before going to live in Mexico, where it remained in use for many years. More than ten years after its creation, it remains one of the brand's iconic models and is still one of its bestsellers. It is also the model that marked my beginnings as a leatherworker and revealed, from the very first years, my way of designing bags meant to last.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by a bag discovered during a trip to Burkina Faso, the Valériane is halfway between a messenger bag and a bucket bag. Its deliberately sober design leaves full room for the leather: its two faces are identical and offer large surfaces that fully reveal the grain, texture, and patina of full-grain leather. Its timeless aesthetic particularly appeals to women sensitive to design, architecture, or the creative industries, who are looking for a bag that is at once discreet, functional, and deeply thoughtful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts design is based on a simple principle: a large bag must remain comfortable, even when it is well filled. Its wide 4 cm shoulder strap naturally distributes the weight on the shoulder and allows it to be carried for a long time without discomfort. It is made as a direct extension of the bag's body, without an attached fastener, thus eliminating one of the most common weak points in leather goods. This construction choice directly contributes to the model's exceptional sturdiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver the years, only a few technical improvements have been made to further enhance its durability, notably the stitching at the bottom of the bag and the discreet addition of side rivets. Its design, however, has remained faithful to the original, proof of a balance that has stood the test of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, two very large flat pockets make it easy to organize everyday essentials, while a long key strap prevents having to detach your bunch of keys to open a door. Simple details, designed to make its use increasingly pleasant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eExterior dimensions: 35 cm wide, 32.5 cm high, 13 cm deep at the base, 5.5 cm opening at the top. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eInterior dimensions: 33 cm wide, 31 cm high, 12 cm deep\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eWeight: approximately 0.9 kg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e4 cm wide strap, adjustable between approximately 70 cm and 145 cm with a sliding buckle for tight shoulder, long, or crossbody wear. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eMagnetic snap closure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003ePockets: 2 side interior pockets, 33 cm wide by 27 cm high\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eVery long key strap.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eThis model is made from full-grain cowhide leather from the Italian artisanal tannery Virgilio Conceria Artigliana, specializing in vegetable tanning. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"\u003eDyed through with natural pigments, this leather develops a deep patina over the years that gives it all its personality.
