- There is nothing more iconic, playful or eye-catching than an animal-themed handbag. And few could have come up with a collection that is more dramatic than that of Lotus Arts de Vivre.
Lotus Arts de Vivre has a longstanding tradition and reputation of being one of the most exclusive handbag suppliers in the world, and this experience has been drawn upon to create this special range of animal handbags-the Ani Bag collection-that is unique-a collector’s item, to say the least.
The bond between man and animals is undeniable, with much of the human race enjoying the company of animals as their pets or companions. The term “pet” is no longer limited to cats, dogs and goldfish as before, but extends to pigs, turtles, or even iguanas. It truly enhances the bond between humanity and animals, and conveys the message that those with differences can live together and enjoy mutual affection. And the Lotus Arts de Vivre animal handbag collection is truly inspired by this message.
Flashing fiery red as its base colour, the animal handbags are made from resin covered with three layers of lacquer to create a captivating luminosity. They are then accented with 24K gold leaf, and topped with a black lacquer handle that replicates the iconic Lotus Arts de Vivre crazy wood handles.
Push the gilded prayer bead clasp, and the bags open to reveal a silk-lined interior in various coloured hues with convenient side pockets.
Not only do they attract the eye, they are also practical, at a size that can handle more than just car keys and a lipstick.
The current collection offers a selection of six animals ranging first of all from a crouching elephant, playfully known as “The Ele”. As a national symbol of Thailand, the elephant holds a special place in everyone’s heart. Next is “The Cluck”, the Cochin Bantam Chicken, a breed that originated from China, and has been called “the sweetheart ball of feathers with feet”. “The Scottie” is our cute Scottish Terrier, a loyal and feisty short-legged dog which is said to be a favourite of no less than US presidents Franklin D Roosevelt and George W Bush.
“The Babe” is a cuddly pig, a symbol of wealth, felicity, honesty, and practicality according to the Chinese zodiac. And the reason we have “piggy banks” is that the pig is believed to bring wealth and good luck. “The Daffy” is based on the Mandarin Duck, another animal that has origins in China, and is recognised by its colourful plumage. “The Blop” is our Japanese Koi fish handbag, a symbol of luck, prosperity, and good fortune, and also of perseverance in the face of adversity. Earliest references to koi can be dated to the Jin Dynasty in China in the 4th century AD.
Last, but not least, is “The Lotus”, a unique green Lotus Leaf bag-
