Last week, our new CEO Joshua Schulman was welcomed to our London HQ where he hosted his first Global Townhall.

The Rocking Horse bag showcases a new house motif through its closure detail – a lowercase ‘b.’     The ‘b’ shape is comprised of a steel circular fastening, which also pivots in place to open and close the bag. Interconnected mechanisms, obscured from view, work in tangent to rotate the hardware.     Discover more about the Rocking Horse bag here: https://lnkd.in/eewEzUmc

The Rocking Horse bag celebrates the equestrian world with its smooth, curved design, reminiscent of the classic childhood toy.    Hand made in Italy, the Rocking Horse’s saddle shape is crafted using precise cutting techniques and a hand curved wooden mould to create its arched body. Inspired by the hardware on horse reins, the straps feature adjustable metal prongs, which switches the design from a shoulder to a crossbody bag.     Discover more about the Rocking Horse bag here: https://lnkd.in/eewEzUmc
