The Aurelia (M)

£199.00

Medium One-of-One Black & Ivory Natural Cowhide Handbag

ONE OF ONE · 01/01

A study in contrast, individuality and natural beauty.

The Aurelia is a medium one-of-one cowhide handbag, handcrafted from genuine natural hair-on hide and distinguished by its dramatic black and ivory markings.

No print. No repeated pattern. No second piece exactly like it.

Every marking belongs to this individual hide, giving The Aurelia a character that cannot be recreated. Bold areas of deep black meet softer ivory and naturally speckled sections, creating a striking contrast that changes as the bag is viewed from different angles.

Its structured silhouette is balanced by the organic texture of the hide, while contrasting stitching, sculpted top handles and polished metal hardware give the piece its refined finish.

Designed in our Medium size, The Aurelia offers the presence of a statement handbag while remaining practical for everyday wear. Carry it traditionally by the double top handles or attach the coordinating long strap for shoulder wear.

The bag photographed is the exact Aurelia you will receive.

Once sold, this hide — and this bag — will never be repeated.

A Note on This Particular Hide

The Aurelia has been created from a natural hide, and with that comes the individual characteristics that make genuine cowhide so distinctive.

This particular piece has a slight natural imperfection on the back left side of the bag, originating from the hide itself. It is subtle and not noticeable when the bag is being carried or worn, and does not detract from the overall appearance of the piece.

Rather than concealing it, we have chosen to preserve the hide as it naturally exists. It is part of The Aurelia's individual story — adding character and making an already one-of-one piece even more uniquely its own.

We recommend reviewing the product photographs before purchasing, as they show the markings and natural characteristics of the exact piece you will receive.

The Beauty of Natural Hide

Natural cowhide is never completely uniform.

Variations in colour, markings, texture and hair direction are inherent characteristics of the material rather than flaws. It is this natural variation that ensures every Hide & Heir piece has its own identity.

One hide. One bag. One owner.

Crafted & Ready

The Aurelia belongs to our Crafted & Ready Collection and has already been individually handcrafted from its selected hide.

There is only one available worldwide.

Once The Aurelia finds its owner, this exact combination of natural markings will not be recreated.

Crafted for today, cherished forever.

Care

Gently brush the cowhide in the natural direction of the hair using a soft hide brush. Avoid excessive moisture, harsh cleaning products, prolonged direct sunlight and sources of heat.

When not in use, store The Aurelia inside its protective dust bag in a cool, dry environment.
