Delilah

Inspiration

Natural stones, unpolished and loaded with flaws, are beautiful to me. My use of glass beads and silver French bullion wire on this bag gave me the chance to create something that was perfectly imperfect. The silver chain adds to the understated glamour. Like a flaw in a raw gemstone or a vein in a piece of marble, this bag is made more beautiful by a lack of structured pattern.

The bags in my collection are made with the highest quality materials, sourced from all over the world. My goal is to create an “antique” look that will stand the test of time. I use gold and silver threads from Japan for shine and elegance. The beads worked into my designs are also from Japan (Toho or Miyuki beads) or from the Czech Republic (Preciosa beads). The sequins in my work are sourced from France and Italy, and the crystals from Swarovski. I use natural pearls or order them from Swarovski as well. Each of my handbags is designed to be a piece of wearable art. To keep them looking their best, treat them either as antiques or as pieces of jewelry. Avoid overloading them and they will retain their beauty for years to come.

I use high quality materials in my works. This means a longer life for the handbag, a beautiful shine and and flawless look. If I need to achieve an "antique" look, high quality materials are must. I use mostly Japanese toho or miyuki beads, less often I use Czech preciosa beads. My gold and silver threads also come from Japan. Products with silver/golden threads are especially fragile and require special care. Crystals and pearls (if not natural) I order from Swarovski. Sequins I work with come from France and Italy.
My handmade handbags are not for common everyday use (rather special events/occasions) and not for carrying extra heavy things in them. Think of them as an antique if you want them to live and serve you long. :)

Delilah reminds us of the beauty doesn’t have to be perfect. Like a natural gemstone, this velvet bag features a silver “crack” or jagged line of embroidery, silver on black. It’s quite elegant and understated, but will sparkle when the light strikes that silver split. Every feature of this bag demonstrates the old-world glamour of hollywood. If you’ve got a basic black dress, add this bag as you head out for the evening. It’s the only gem you need to dress up an outfit!
