"Aurore" cork cross-body bag – Envelope clutch, 2 colors
An asymmetrical flap in marbled cork or with gold reflections, a body in natural cork with horizontal veins, a golden turn-lock clasp reminiscent of designer bags: the Aurore bag has the look of an evening clutch with the practicality of an everyday cross-body bag. Remove the strap and you have a clutch. Keep it on and you have a hands-free bag for the whole day.
The play of textures between the intricate flap and the smooth cork body creates an elegant contrast that defines the character of this bag. The golden cork catches the light, the marbled cork plays on earthy tones — in both cases, people will ask you where it's from.
2 versions to choose from
- Gold reflections — the flap is made of natural cork with golden veins that shimmer subtly in the light. Chic and luminous, perfect for an elegant outfit or a summer evening.
- Marbled — the flap features a swirling pattern of pink, copper, and cream tones, entirely natural. Warmer and more organic, it gives the bag an earthy and assertive character.
Organization
- Main compartment — closed by the turn-lock flap. Spacious for phone, wallet, keys, glasses, compact makeup bag.
- Inner kangaroo pocket — open, for easy access to your phone.
- Inner zippered pocket — to secure bank card, keys, or small valuables.
- Back zippered pocket — quick access without opening the flap, ideal for a transit pass or change.
Why Aurore
- Envelope format — the asymmetrical flap gives the bag a clean and structured silhouette, halfway between a clutch and a cross-body bag. A format that dresses up an outfit without cluttering it.
- Golden turn-lock clasp — one motion to open, one motion to close. The golden metal adds a touch of luxury that contrasts with the softness of the cork.
- Cotton lining — no polyester. Cotton breathes, doesn't stick, and adds a quality feel every time you open the bag.
- Ultra-light — cork weighs a fraction of leather. You can wear the Aurore all evening without feeling the weight of the strap on your shoulder.
- Waterproof — cork naturally repels water. A spilled drink, a downpour — your bag fears nothing.
- 100% vegan — natural cork from Portugal, cotton lining, metal clasp. No animal-derived materials.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the shoulder strap be removed for use as a clutch?
Yes. The shoulder strap is attached by cork knots at the ends of the bag. It detaches easily and the Aurore becomes an elegant clutch/handbag for an evening out.
Is the turn-lock clasp sturdy?
Yes. The golden metal turn-lock secures with a quarter-turn rotation. It holds the flap firmly in place, even in a bag jostled while walking. No risk of accidental opening.
Are the golden reflections painted or natural?
They are natural veins in the cork that have been enhanced with a subtle golden treatment. The effect is light and elegant — it's not a flashy gold but a discreet reflection that catches the light.
Can this bag hold an iPad?
Yes. With 27.5 cm wide and 20.5 cm high, the main compartment can accommodate a tablet up to 10 inches, in addition to your everyday essentials.
How do I care for the Aurore?
A damp cloth with a neutral soap for the exterior. The cotton lining can be cleaned in the same way. Air dry. The golden cork retains its reflections without special maintenance.
