Mare Crochet Charm in White — Shell-Shaped Bag Charm

Mare is a crochet bag charm shaped like a spiral shell, as if picked up on a warm shoreline. It belongs to Dolce Far Niente, POELLE's summer collection inspired by the Italian art of doing nothing. In white, with a soft, textured stitch, it adds a light, playful note to any bag and looks especially good against black or cream leather, canvas, linen and straw.

How to wear a shell bag charm

Wrap the cord loop around a handle or strap and pull it snug; the shell hangs to the side without getting in the way when you open your bag. Mare works beautifully on the large Riposo tote, on the mesh Francesca, and on small shoulder bags. A tiny purse charm that moves easily from one bag to the next, it is one of those summer accessories you end up keeping on all year.

Caring for crochet

Brush away dust with a soft brush. If needed, rinse gently by hand in cool water without rubbing or wringing, then dry flat on a towel, shaping the spiral with your fingers.

Where it's made
