The Medallion Tote is built from a grid of hand-crocheted raffia medallions, each one a small, open pinwheel of lace joined to the next in Sophie Digard's signature patchwork construction. The result is a bag that is as much textile as object — its open lacework casting shadow and light across the surface, the natural raffia shifting between pale straw and warm gold depending on how it falls.
Worked entirely in 100% raffia by the women artisans Digard has long collaborated with in Madagascar, every medallion is crocheted by hand, its geometry precise yet alive with the subtle variation that only handwork produces.
A softly structured silhouette with short handles — considered and unhurried in equal measure.

ABOUT the MAKER
Sophie Digard Créations
French designer Sophie Digard creates hand-crocheted heirloom pieces unlike any other — each one meticulously made by hand and entirely unique. With an extraordinary eye for detail and colour, Sophie develops her own hues by blending merino wool, linen, and velvet threads, resulting in tones of rich, subtle complexity. Her creations — scarves, brooches, bags, and accessories — are deeply personal, shaped by time, craftsmanship, and the tradition of slow making. Produced in Madagascar through a production model Sophie established with local women artisans, each piece combines age-old techniques with a refined French sensibility. These works are true keepsakes, cherished by collectors around the world for their beauty, texture, and soul.
