Schiaparelli Face Bag and Hand in Hand Clutch: Sizes, Materials and Prices (2026)

The Schiaparelli Face Bag is a leather handbag decorated with gold anatomical jewels, an eye, a nose and a mouth, that together form a face on the front. The Hand in Hand Clutch is its evening partner: a clutch carried by a gold metal hand. Both are made in Italy and sit in the designer clutch bags edit; our Schiaparelli bags guide covers the rest of the range.

Key facts

• Face Bag sizes: micro, mini and full, plus the Face Clutch, the Face Tote Bag and the Face Phone Pouch.
• Materials: calfskin, patent, velvet, shearling and exotic skins, lined in lambskin.
• Price range at Coveti: about $6,270 for the Face Phone Pouch to about $19,290 for the Hand in Hand Clutch in black velvet.

The Face Bag

The face is formed by separate gold jewels set into the leather, so the bag reads differently in every material. The Face Bag in brown patina calfskin is the classic. The Face Bag in Marron and Nude uses a sfumato gradient from brown to nude, and the Face Bag in Black is black velvet embroidered with galuchat effect Swarovski crystals. The dark green leather Face Bag and the leopard print shearling Face Bag are the seasonal versions.

Mini, micro and the Face Clutch

The Mini Face Bag is black goatskin embroidered with metal pieces, and the Mini Face Bag in pale pink calfskin is the softer colour. The Micro Face Bag in brown patina calfskin holds a phone and a card. The Face Clutch drops the handle for a flat clutch in black calfskin; it also comes in red calfskin and blue velvet. The Face Phone Pouch in bronze laminated calfskin is the entry point.

The Hand in Hand Clutch

The Hand in Hand Clutch is held by a gold metal hand with rhinestones, so the bag appears to be holding yours. It comes in black satin, black velvet embroidered with shagreen effect crystals, beige shearling, leopard print shearling and hand braided black calfskin. It is an evening bag first: wear it with a column dress so the hand is the only ornament.

Face Bag and Hand in Hand Clutch compared

Which one to choose

For a daily bag, the full Face Bag in calfskin is the practical choice: it has the room and the leather wears well. For evenings, choose the Hand in Hand Clutch. If you want the code without the full investment, the Micro Face Bag and the Face Phone Pouch carry the same jewels for under $7,000. The Schiaparelli price guide explains how these prices compare with the boutique.

Spotting a copy

The Hand in Hand Clutch is one of the most copied bags of the decade. A genuine piece carries heavy, cleanly cast hardware, crystals set evenly in the metal and a lambskin lining. Our authentic Schiaparelli guide lists what to check before buying from anyone other than the house and its authorised retailers.

Where the Face Bag comes from

The face is one of the oldest ideas at Schiaparelli. In the 1930s Elsa Schiaparelli worked with Salvador Dali and Jean Cocteau, whose drawings of faces and hands found their way onto her clothes and accessories. Daniel Roseberry, creative director since 2019, made the anatomy the signature of the current house, first in jewellery and then on bags, by setting separate gold jewels, an eye, a nose and a mouth, into the leather so the bag itself becomes a face. The Hand in Hand Clutch takes the same idea to the hand.

Buyer’s checklist for a Face Bag

• Size: micro holds a phone and cards; mini adds keys and a lipstick; the full Face Bag carries the day.
• Material: calfskin is the most durable; velvet and shearling are seasonal and need more care.
• Hardware: the jewels are gilded metal; keep the bag in its dust bag so they are not scratched.
• Strap: check each product page for the strap and handle options before ordering.
• Authenticity: buy from the house and its authorised retailers, and keep the dust bag and card.
