Priding themselves as the oldest fine leather goods house in the world since 1829, Belgian brand, Delvaux, was founded a year before Belgium declared independence from Netherlands.
Founded by trunk maker, Charles Delvaux, he envisioned the new need for women to have a hand-held bag to hold essentials while the traveled. This led the company to file some of the earliest patents for handbags. In 1933, Delvaux was transformed into a highly sought-after label for producing luxurious handbags by Franz Schwennicke. He also introduced the concept of seasonal collections, like it was done in haute couture houses.
This season, the luxury leather goods house springs into a cheery mood by adding a rainbow of colours on their Brillant bags. The Brillant is the most iconic style for the house. The structured bag features the brand’s signature horseshoe-shaped buckle, which can be seen as an abstract letter ‘D’. Every bag takes eight hours to assemble, and everything down to the last button are handcrafted by artisans.
The Brillant MM Magic Ivory Rainbow is a playful take on the timeless style. The leather ivory structured number opens up to reveal an accordion of interior that is completely reinvented with pockets in an array of colours – lilac, nude, and citron.
A business-appropriate bag which can instantly put a smile on your face with its cheery interior? We’ll take it.
Delvaux’s Brillant MM Magic Ivory Rainbow bag, S$54,800.
