Murano, blown bags
If I were to say “Murano“, what would you think of?
You’d probably think of either the island that is world famous for glass blowing or the city of Venice.
It was Mardi Gras a while ago and, as usual, Carnival events in the lagoon were quite distinctive. This year, the theme was Sensation.
At Mandarina Duck, Murano recalls our Fall-Winter 2001 bag collection created by Marcel Wanders.
It was a marriage of design and handicraft.
The rounded line was created by a method similar to glass blowing. Thermo-sensitive materials were heated and inflated through a valve with the Mandarina Duck logo, which was the distinctive insignia of the line.
Just take a look at the Fagotto bag (named after the musical instrument known as the bassoon in English) and you can understand the essence of the line.
Innovative fabrics worked with traditional artisan influence. The functionality of the bag was guaranteed by the innovative zipper running along its side and the dual wearing options given by the adjustable leather shoulder strap.
Our change purses and handbags evoked nature because of their organic shapes and colors, which were reminiscent of rock, such as obsidian, flint, quartz and amber.

I like those bags. I prefer rounded corners to bags that are squared off. They look much better when I’m carrying them. I definitely have to look around & see about getting me one of these bags.

I prefer the more organic shaped purses and handbags too. Thank you for the general overview of these bags.
