The Loro Piana Ghiera Bag combines heritage with modernity

The Loro Piana Ghiera Bag combines strong personality and discreet charm with a linear, minimalist design

From archival silhouettes to signature hardware, luxury fashion houses are always looking to pay homage to their heritage in collections. Case in point: the Loro Piana Ghiera bag. Inspired by the homonymous ring-shaped pendant that has always adorned the Maison’s women’s garments and textile accessories, the latest creation also takes cues from the brand’s textile heritage, with its embellishments nodding at rings that are part of the spinning machine used as key elements in the processing of fibres.

Handcrafted in Italy, the Ghiera collection boasts a silhouette with curved, continuous, and harmonious lines, alongside a clasp and ring-shaped strap loops akin to the Sun Gold and Antique Silver metal fittings.

Available in various sizes, materials, and colour variations, the Ghiera collection serves all occasions well.

Crafted with precision, the medium-sized bags feature the softest calfskin leather, dyed with natural pigments in exquisite shades such as sunday morning, peach suede, dark chocolate licorice, and deep kummel. The interior, intelligently organised with gussets, boasts a lining of contrasting colours in nappa leather, creating a dynamic and unexpected effect.

For connoisseurs of hand-crafted elegance, the leather and wicker version stands as a masterpiece. Natural-tone straw is meticulously hand-woven on a loom, reminiscent of the art of creating knitwear. Each piece is a testament to individuality and uniqueness.

Diversifying the collection, the line includes small and mini versions, offering distinctive sensory experiences rooted in the maison’s heritage. The small version, blending traditional roots with modern simplicity, is available in linen calf with a creamy sunday morning tone and fine saddle leather in dark lichen green and koi fish nuances. Meanwhile, the Ghiera mini bags exude sophistication in lotus root linen calf and black silk satin, adorned with glossy calfskin trim, providing a touch of refinement to any ensemble.

Resonating with the minimalist, functional, and impeccably crafted aesthetics, the Ghiera is poised to become one of the most desirable bags of the coming season, perfectly embodying the brand’s essence.
