The Workshop - The Home Of Creation…

Henri says 'I like to give my creations names. The bag I made as a gift for my loved mother was named after her. When god brought my child into the world, I made a picture frame pendant.

All the names have a sense of humor, which I think is quite quintessential to my label.'
