Ricotta Mandorla, positioned within Atelier Emine's Crystal Gelato Couture series, is a top-handle mini bag design that stands out with its sculptural form language, dense crystal weave texture, and sophisticated carrying ergonomics.
The bag body is completely handcrafted by individually weaving 8 mm standard round cut optical crystal beads using high strength monofilament fishing line. Thanks to the homogeneous alignment of the crystals, an uninterrupted light refraction is achieved across the surface, while the weave density provides the bag with a self-supporting balanced structure.
The body is constructed based on a soft cubic form. This form offers a sculptural stance when carried by hand and ensures maximum efficiency in internal volume. The crystal weave top-handle grip positioned at the top is fully integrated with the body and is optimized for weight distribution and ergonomics when carried by hand.
The product features an open top structure that closes with the natural weight and form balance of the crystal weave, without a closing mechanism. This choice supports the minimal and couture character of the design while providing aesthetic integrity without disrupting the continuity of the crystal surface.
The internal structure is reinforced with industrial supporting materials to ensure that the crystal weave maintains its form over the long term. Ricotta Mandorla, with its compact volume, high craftsmanship density, and refined form language, is among the timeless and strong pieces of the collection.
