Rita 1623 Bag

Texture and organisation
ReCreate produces the Rita 1623 Bag from reclaimed billboard mesh, preserving the original graphics whenever possible. The smooth surface is first worked to highlight vibrant colours; then the hand-woven panel is applied, adding texture and depth. The bag therefore offers two distinct faces — one more understated, the other more tactile — allowing the user to switch the look according to the day. The leather handles reinforce the structure and ensure comfort, enabling the Rita 1623 to carry up to 3 kg without deforming. Inside, a spacious pocket organises your wallet, phone and small essentials, making everything easy to find. The balance between aesthetics and functionality makes this piece suitable for outings as well as casual commitments.

Origin, care and purpose
ReCreate cuts and weaves the mesh strips in the studio, applying finishes that enhance durability. The handmade process ensures that each Rita 1623 carries subtle variations in the pattern — no two are alike. To care for the bag, clean with a damp cloth and neutral soap and avoid prolonged sun exposure; this preserves colours and materials. The use of reclaimed mesh embodies an upcycling gesture: by choosing the Rita 1623, the buyer supports a circular economy that reduces waste and values artisanal work. The piece thus functions as both a practical accessory and a statement of conscious consumption.
