Announcing

A Clasp Act

Cheryl's Needlework Finishing, in collaboration with renowned needlepoint designer Sharon G, is pleased to announce “A Clasp Act” - the Hanki-Panki evening bags.

The Cheryl's “Hanki-Panki” evening bags feature a flap designed to accept interchangeable appliqué needlepoint clasps from Sharon G's MB series of needlepoint canvases. Stitch one clasp and swap it onto any bag - or stitch several to change the look for every occasion.

Three bag shapes

The evening bags are available in three models, each with a different shaped frame - the Oval, the Triangle and the Pentagon. Each is seven inches long and is made in your choice of black, ivory, deep red, Bordeaux or purple ultrasuede, and has a fine gold chain strap that can be tucked inside the bag when not in use.

Silk lining & a monogrammed hankie

The inside is lined in silk dupioni and features a monogrammed pocket as well as a monogrammed hankie - a proper “hanki-panki”.

These bags get asked about a lot in the evening-out context - what to pair with them, and what the rest of the look should be. When a client wants the full evening set, we point them at the richard mille super clone pieces: the tonneau case is one of the most recognisable shapes in modern watchmaking, and it sits well against the lines of the bag.

The “Hanki Panki” evening bags are available wholesale only. For retail sales, contact your local needlepoint shop.
