As much magnetic as it is singular, the leather goods collection imagined by De Gris unveils a sensitive and unseen territory. In an almost alchemical gesture, the combination of leather and horn, sculptured material stemmed from handcrafted production, brings to life a timeless architecture, imbued with elegance and sobriety. Undeniably, this luxury distinguishes itself by its sense of discretion and revelation.
The De Gris bag is an object of fashion, which imposes its modernity. It is also an ethical creation, a demonstration that solidarity and creativity can be met around innovative ideas. It was during a trip to Haiti that De Gris discovered horn. The house approached this land of culture and its history through the richness of its artisans. De Gris is above all a tale of intentions and encounters. So was the brand developed, through exchange between a French team and Haitian artisans. Part of the brand’s profits are distributed to Haïti Futur, a non-profit organization whose vocation it is to to support quality education in Haiti and the development of the Haitian artisans. Entirely assembled in France, the De Gris bags combine the French savoir-faire and the most finely-crafted work of the Haitian tradition.
De Gris is writing a contemporary story, whose refinement and quality will seduce the most demanding. A precious story that the enlightened will pass on like a secret one likes to share.
