DESCRIPTION
Exposed to so many beautifully crafted pieces through her global travels, Amal witnessed and supported so many artisans who continue to employ and pay homage to traditions of exquisite luxury craftsmanship, inspired designs, and breathtaking touches of contemporary innovation.
Amal’s view of the handbag “world” is that any woman’s handbag should first and foremost stand out as a piece of unique art—something just a little bit out of the ordinary.
Almost classic yet contemporary in design, Amal feels that carrying the Tote Bag should make every woman feel unique and enjoy its “GOLD AND GEMS”-inspired luxurious feel while exuding her own individual signature style.
As a bold statement in itself, Amal feels that a woman's bag should, in fact, be the centerpiece of what she may wish to wear that day!
Whether it is our current GOLD and GEMS Nubian civilization-inspired Collection today or future designs, our leisure bags will continue to have an artistic flair, always emphasizing craftsmanship and always embodying her global influences.
Inspiration and Design
Those who have experienced the Sahara Desert, starkly contrasted by the lush green banks of the Nile, against the backdrop of sheer day-blue skies, as well as the black diamond nights, can confirm the sensation of magic and mystery that engulfs you in its majesty.
Here is Amal’s interpretation of the Ancient Nubian’s love of everything that glitters in the Sahara: shades of metallic turquoise and black (Sahara-Turquoise Night Tote) of the dark Sahara night with its crystalline blue hue of sparkling stars, glittering metallic malachite green and sand (Sahara-Malachite Day Tote), and black and white (Sahara-White Nights Tote)—her interpretation of the white caftans worn by the men and the black sheer long caftans worn by the Nubian women until this day.
Our Sahara-inspired Tote Bags are designed to be roomy for all your throw-in needs of the day, with a touch of the MEDANI organization bug.
Each Tote bag is beautifully lined in luxurious 100% Nappa suede leather and includes our popular foldout wallet for currency, cards, and coins with a detachable shoulder strap for versatile use.
Taking inspiration from such old civilization' innovative and luxurious craftsmanship, Amal feels that her collection would be a perfect medium for others to seek out and learn more about these often forgotten ancient creative legacies.
Handmade in Italy, the SAHARA WHITE NIGHTS Tote Bags exterior palette of Black on White is matched with a 100% pink suede leather lining.
The Tote has two compartments to hold your phone and an included wallet to complete the ease of access in its design and use.
