Baguette bags — compact leather shoulder bags
Long, low, close to the body
A baguette bag is wider than it is tall and sits just under the arm: in the UK it is often simply called a baguette handbag. Ours start with Poelle Untitled: a flap, one handle, an interior lined in eco-leather. Every baguette is made by hand in our atelier in Ukraine and delivered to the UK free, duties included.
Untitled Small or Medium
Small is 29 × 15 × 10 cm (11.4 × 5.9 × 3.9 in) and 650 g (1.4 lb). Its slender arched handle lifts the height to 33 cm (13 in), so it can be held in the hand or slipped onto the shoulder. Inside: a phone, a card case, keys, a lipstick, sunglasses.
Medium is 35 × 15 × 13 cm (13.8 × 5.9 × 5.1 in) and 900 g (2 lb), with a handle drop of 25 cm (9.8 in). It adds a wallet, sunglasses in their case and a slim notebook. A tablet fits neither.
Both come in smooth black and brown leather and in olive patent leather. Small is also made in milky leather, choco and orange suede and snake print leather; Medium in marsala.
The other baguettes
Sophie, Cecilie, Prima, Britni and Cleo follow the same line in other proportions. Patent leather is stored apart from other bags; the care page explains why. For an evening, see clutches.
