The Splice Dream Bag in Cognac Chèvre and Safari Crocodile
Peter Nitz's 25cm Splice Dream Bag draws its distinction from a confident collision of materials: aniline cognac chèvre against safari brown crocodile, each element precisely placed to articulate the atelier's mastery of craft.

The Splice Dream Bag from Atelier Peter Nitz arrives as a study in material eloquence. Where the cognac chèvre forms the substantial body, softly grained and inviting to the touch, the safari brown crocodile asserts itself with sculptural authority across the flap, handles and base. This is not mere contrast for its own sake, but rather a dialogue between two leathers that each belong to their designated place, each performing its appointed function with unflinching purpose.
The 25cm format announces itself as a tote of genuine utility. The crocodile handles, deep and substantial in the hand, carry that particular weight and texture that speaks of rarity and time spent in selection. Peter Nitz, the master craftsman at the atelier’s helm, personally curates each skin that enters his workshop, understanding that the distinction between a bag of merit and one of consequence resides in these irreducible details.
Every seam throughout is saddle stitched by hand, a labour intensive technique that remains the foundation of Atelier Peter Nitz’s philosophy. The interior finds itself lined in chèvre, continuous with the exterior body, while the signature branding sits with characteristic restraint at the fore. The work speaks for itself. To commission such a piece is to undertake a conversation with the atelier, a consultation that shapes the final realisation into something genuinely bespoke. Peter Nitz operates from Zurich, and the Dream Bag’s reputation among those who understand handcrafted leather extends far beyond Switzerland’s borders.
