It will be sold at The Met and online in celebration of the exhibition 'Jewelry: The Body Transformed'.

 

The Met's general manager for merchandising and sourcing Marissa Harvey welcomed the collaboration as it promotes responsible design.

 

We are thrilled to be partnering with From St Xavier on this exclusive line of handmade bags which reinterpret works in The Met collection in exquisite beaded detail.

 

Designed in Australia, handmade in India, and sold in New York – this collection is intended as to spark conversation around the future of responsible design.
