Morgenglanz | Vintage Liezhi Tote in sonnenverblichenem Rot

Some materials carry stories long after their original purpose has passed.

Puzzles explores the possibilities of giving textiles a new form through traditional rag weaving. Inspired by the idea of putting different pieces together, it brings together fragments of woven fabric in a composition of colors, patterns, and textures.

Each panel has its own character, yet finds a place within the whole. Like pieces of a puzzle, they come together to create something entirely new.

A contemporary expression of Yunnan's textile traditions, where the past becomes part of everyday life.

Puzzles features a geometric patchwork design, combining handwoven textile panels in contrasting colors and textures.

The arrangement of individual sections gives the bag an expressive, almost mosaic-like appearance. Subtle differences in the woven surfaces add depth and character, making every piece visually distinct.

Its clean rectangular shape balances the irregularity of the patchwork, while the hand-braided rope strap adds another layer of texture.

Designed with a two-way strap system, Puzzles can be carried over the shoulder or across the body.

Puzzles draws on the traditional rag-weaving technique, known as Lie Zhi.

Previously woven textiles are cut into narrow strips and used as weft threads, which are woven together with the warp on a traditional wooden loom to create new fabric.

The resulting textile is then assembled into a series of panels, creating the bag's distinctive geometric patchwork design. A hand-braided rope strap completes the piece.

The process brings different textile fragments together, allowing their original colors and textures to become part of a new composition.

Designed to adapt to different occasions, Puzzles offers two ways to carry it.

• Shoulder Bag: Wear the strap in its shorter configuration for a compact silhouette that sits close to the body.
• Crossbody Bag: Extend the strap for a longer, hands-free carry, ideal for everyday outings and exploring the city.

With space for everyday essentials such as your phone, wallet, keys, and other small belongings, it brings both character and practicality to your daily routine.
