Nano reduces the Steamer to roughly 6 by 7 by 2.5 inches, tall rather than wide, with the leather-framed top and rolled handles that identify the shape reproduced at a fraction of the size. Monogram Eclipse in grey on black is the darkest canvas the house prints, which suits a small bag that should not announce itself. The original was designed in 1901 to hang inside a trunk, and the vertical proportions here still carry that logic. A strap takes it across the body. Rolled handles sit above the leather frame for hand carry, with the strap covering everything else. Shrinking an archive shape is a compliment to it, provided the details survive, and here they do. Size: Nano Maison de Beaubigonne authenticity guaranteed.
