Smythson:
Nancy Cobalt Bag
The
new Nancy Bags in cobalt, aubergine and black, take Nancy's
signature hand riveted quilting to create a younger, deconstructed
shoulder bag.
Early
Smythson
catalogues from 1902 show a variety of bags for day, evening and
travel. Reflecting Smythson's London roots, the names of the bags
reveal a strong British connection.
They
also illustrate a strong emphasis on innovation in early handbag
design. One 1909 bag is described as 'Utility and Elegance Combined.'
With
the modern classic Nancy Bag Smythson proved that their handbag
creations are still synonymous with timeless luxury and innovative
British design.
