Signature Illustrated Top Handle 25 – Nata Leather & Silver | BagLadt

The Signature Illustrated Top Handle 25 “X-Ray” is a delightful subversion of traditional luxury. It takes the most serious, structured bag in the world and adds a wink of humor. The playful illustrations on the front invite the viewer to peek “inside” the bag, celebrating the secret world of the woman who carries it. It is art, fashion, and wit combined.

Design & Craftsmanship

Canvas of Leather:
The body is crafted from “Swift” calfskin, a leather prized for its incredibly fine grain and ability to absorb dye vividly. In this creamy “Nata” shade, it serves as the perfect canvas for the intricate line drawings. The print depicts iconic items—a lipstick, a clochette, a coin purse—sketched in charcoal grey, creating a striking trompe-l’œil effect against the pale background.

Architectural Structure:
Beneath the playful exterior lies the rigorous architecture of the “Retourne” construction. The bag features soft, rounded edges with internal stitching, giving it a relaxed yet poised silhouette. The single rolled handle stands firm, while the detachable shoulder strap adds modern functionality to the collectible piece.

Silver Accents:
The hardware is finished in cool Palladium silver, which harmonizes beautifully with the Nata leather and the grey illustrations. The turn-lock mechanism, padlock, and keys are all present, grounding the whimsical design in the brand’s serious saddlery heritage. It is a rare find that balances fun with flawless execution.
