There’s something a bit fishy about this Giocanda satchel from Serpui Marie.
Puns aside, I can’t help thinking about silvery seafood when I look at this metallic satchel. The leather scales adorning its front bring some real personality to the Giocanda’s simple box shape.
I love the look, but I also hesitate to carry it. It’s such a bulky bag, so I’m not sure how practical it would be to carry around on a daily basis. At least I’d never have to leave anything behind, but I imagine lugging all those possessions wouldn’t be a picnic. If like me you prefer to travel light, perhaps you could use it as a weekender!
It really would be a shame to count this satchel out due to its size. It’s a lovely looking thing, and its wraparound zip makes it easy to pack and unpack. I’d have appreciated a few more pockets, particularly if it’s going to have an everyday application, but this niggle if you’re filling it with bulky goods.
The price does make me pause though. At $625 I really want a bag I can carry every day, not just on select occasions. If you love your oversized satchels though, this scaly purse could be right up your alley.
