These wooden purses were designed as part of a project in experimenting with the varying properties of wood.
While handbags are made from a large range of different materials, wood is not often one of them. The French cabinetmaker Vincent Louchard decided to forgo traditional design norms by making handbags from an unusual material and the result is structured purses that are both functional and highly unique. The bags are elegant and due to their unusual material do not require any significant embellishments to stand out. The sophisticated wooden purses are each different due to the different cuts and markings on the wood used to make them.
These unique purses are perfect for people looking to experiment with fashion.
