The story behind
The origin of the "Holi" design lies in the Indian celebration of the same name: Holi, the festival of colors celebrated on the spring equinox where each color has a specific meaning. The first version of the Amalthee boxes for Spring 2021 featured these symbolic colors, including red, pink, blue, orange and yellow. This season, the "Holi" design features a more herbal and floral color palette that contrasts with the nata-colored Swift calfskin leather and matches the shades of the elm. The burgundy-colored beads accentuate the look.
