Hipólita

This handbag is inspired by Hipólita Bolívar, also known as “Negra Hipólita” She was born in San Mateo, Aragua State, Venezuela in 1763 and died in Caracas on June 25, 1835. When Simón Bolívar was born in 1783, his mother, due to a critical health situation, was forced to find a nurse for her son. She resorted to Hipólita, who was then a slave at “El Ingenio” farm in San Mateo, owned by the family. This fact was remembered by Bolívar himself on various occasions, showing in gestures and even in letters the affection he always felt for Hipólita, whom he came to consider his mother and father. Elegant and sober as the ebony, our "Hipólita" model is the bag that you can combine with everything, for that unstoppable working woman, who always seeks to look fashionable. WASHING INSTRUCTIONS: They can be washed by hand or in a washing machine, preferably delicately. It is recommended not to dry them directly in the sun to preserve the original color and not to iron them.
