The Stellar Canvas Tote began in the winter of 2019, when our founder Kate Nguyα»
n flew to Des Moines to visit her son and met the dog who lived next door, a quiet, watchful creature named Stella, gentle in a way that stayed with her after she came home.
The tote is made in cotton canvas with full-grain Vietnamese cowhide trim, soft enough to fold into a weekend, structured enough to carry a laptop through a working week. Handcrafted at Gallery de Neyuh's Saigon workshop, finished with light gold-plated hardware, and named for a dog who never knew a bag was named after her.
