Part of the Rienda Collection, La Morena is a playful exploration of the beauty found in everyday objects. While the collection often draws inspiration from the tools, landscapes, and traditions of life on the road, this piece looks instead to something more humble: the disposable sugar packet. Familiar, fleeting, and often overlooked, its graphic imagery becomes the starting point for a study in memory, place, and craftsmanship.
 
Crafted from ivory leather, the bag features artwork hand-silkscreened by a local San Miguel de Allende artist using imagery inspired by Zulka's Morena sugar packaging. Reimagined in leather, the ephemeral becomes enduring—a small celebration of the visual culture that surrounds daily life throughout Mexico.
 
Compact and lightweight, La Morena features a single zippered compartment and an adjustable strap that can be worn at the waist or across the body. Its streamlined form is designed for movement, carrying only the essentials while leaving room for spontaneity and adventure.
 
Both whimsical and thoughtful, La Morena reflects a recurring thread within the Rienda Collection: the belief that beauty is not reserved for precious objects alone. Sometimes it can be found in the most ordinary things—a worn label, a roadside sign, a sugar packet tucked into a pocket—waiting to be seen anew.
