A vibrant checkered fabric, the colours represent the Samburu tribe and their affinity with the cycles of nature and way of life. Embodying colours of blue for the sky, red for cattle's blood and white for cow's milk, the bag is limited to 300 editions and will launch on 25 March as an online exclusive to LOEWE and MyTheresa. The bag features a tasselled strap hand woven by artisans of the Samburu Trust, a unique design feature that steps away from the original LOEWE Elephant leather bag.
