We have just received the Spring Summer 2014 collection of handbags from Jamin Puech Paris. This season they have really outdone themselves! Each bag is unique and we have a great assortment of styles: from day bags to evening bags; small sequined bags to large raffia beach bags; colourful bags, and bags in neutral colours. This is probably my favourite collection from Jamin Puech to date! Each handbag has been designed with a special attention to detail, and we hope to show them off to you in person!

CLARENCE is the black leather handbag (above) with small wave design cutouts. The beautifully textured leather handles are comfortable to carry in the hand, as well as at the shoulder (42 cm). There is a snap closure. The lining is made of printed cotton, and has 3 large interior compartments, one of which has a full zipper. The overall bag dimensions are: H 24 cm x L 34 cm x 10 cm.

DOREEN is a large raffia bag in black and natural, with black leather handles, a button closure, striped cotton lining, and 1 large interior pocket with a button closure.
