This collection of 'Wearable Wood' clutches is the work of Tel-Aviv based design duo Tesler+Mendelovitch. Produced in Israel, these striking statement accessories transform their traditional wood material from its original connotations.
The unique clutches transform their heavy material into a unconventional textile that is both durable and sculptural in its design. Experimenting with complex mathematical forms, this collection of 'Wearable Wood' pieces features 3D geometric surface design details that are both visually stunning and textural.
With architecture as their inspiration, Tesler+Mendelovitch blur the lines between art and fashion with their artisanal wood clutches that are hand-crafted and elegant. While their material makes these clutches sophisticated and versatile, their geometric relief elements act as bold visual focal points that draw the eye in.
