The other half of a warmer story, and the third piece of our Day Collection. The Nala is set in a mosaic of round black tab shell discs, cognac, amber and deep ebony catching the light differently across the surface, with a comfortably carved handle and a simple zip. Rich, easy and laid back. It packs completely flat, made to be carried, and to travel.

Each shell is found, then slowly revealed. Soaked until the sea loosens its hold and the debris falls away, then polished by hand and set piece by piece.

Made by hand by artisans in the Philippines, whose skills have been passed down through generations, and whose time is honoured fairly. So no two are quite alike.
