Croco Glacé — glossy croc-effect shell

Croc, carved out of light.

The Croco Glacé takes the scale to its point of brilliance: a rigid TPU shell with a lacquer gloss, deep croc grain, metal clasp. It doesn't crease, doesn't slump — it stands on its own, like an object placed there to be looked at.

With every step, the light slides from one scale to the next. It is the most sculptural bag of the Maison — the one you choose when the outfit is simple and the bag must not be.

Six translucent shades, from Lait to Graphite.

The essentials

• Glossy rigid TPU shell, embossed croc grain
• Metal clasp, round handles
• ≈ 500 g
• Fits the Maison's charms

Care

A dry microfibre cloth is enough to revive the shine. Avoid knocks against hard surfaces.

What is the Croco Glacé bag?

It weighs around 500 g, stands up on its own without slumping, and comes in six translucent shades, from Lait to Graphite.

Frequently asked questions

What is a rigid-shell bag?

It is a bag whose structure neither creases nor slumps when you set it down: it keeps its shape empty or full, and stands up on its own. Unlike a soft bag, it also protects what it carries from pressure.

Is the croc grain printed or embossed?

Embossed. The grain is pressed in relief into the material: with every step the light slides from one scale to the next instead of reflecting all at once. That is what makes the Croco Glacé sculptural rather than merely glossy.

Can you see what is inside the bag?

The TPU is translucent and the croc relief scatters the light: shapes and colours can be guessed, details cannot. Slip a pouch inside to keep private what should stay private.

How do you care for a glossy shell?

A dry microfibre cloth is enough to revive the shine — no product is needed. Avoid knocks against hard surfaces: that is the only real precaution a rigid shell calls for.

Which shades are there?

Six translucent shades: Lait, Fuchsia, Pomme, Ciel, Graphite and Onyx.
