Henry Beguelin Bolla Bassa Pony Hair Shoulder Bag in Wine
Bolla Bassa Pony Hair Shoulder Bag in Wine
Henry Beguelin's Bolla Bassa takes on a richer, more tactile character in pony-hair calf. The low, elongated shoulder bag keeps the softly rounded Bolla shape, while the streaked Wine hair shifts between deep burgundy and near-black, finished with black leather handles, knotted leather zip pulls with beads and the brand's small signature figure. Handcrafted in Italy. Available in Australia online and in-store at Riada Concept in Woollahra, Sydney.
The long rolled handles let the bag sit neatly under the arm, and the zip-top closure keeps everyday essentials secure. Wine adds seasonal depth to a camel coat and dark denim, or to charcoal tailoring and a fine black knit, with the pony-hair surface bringing texture to an otherwise pared-back look. For the same silhouette in Henry Beguelin's hand-worked lambskin, see the Bolla Bassa Old Iron Lambskin Leather Shoulder Bag in Camel.

What is pony-hair calf?
Pony hair is calf leather with its short, dense hair left on the surface. It gives the Bolla Bassa a soft, textured finish with far more depth than smooth leather, which suits the deep Wine colour.
What colour is Henry Beguelin Wine?
Wine is a deep burgundy. On this Bolla Bassa, the streaked pony hair moves between burgundy and near-black, and the black leather handles keep the overall look dark and grounded.
How big is the Bolla Bassa?
At 31 cm wide and 15 cm high, it is a compact-to-medium shoulder bag sized for daily essentials rather than a laptop or documents.
How does the pony-hair Bolla Bassa differ from the Old Iron version?
The shape and handle length are the same. The Old Iron versions are made in hand-worked lambskin that develops with wear, available in Camel and Oliva; the pony-hair version brings more surface texture and a more seasonal look.
