At first glance, only the pine green decorative seams and the removable tassel in the classic colours green, red and white give a hint to the Christmas motif. This is because the edition "Christmas Dream No.1" presents itself in the typically timeless SEKRÈ design, so that it fits all seasons.
As with all editions of the mystery bag line, the real highlight of „Christmas Dream No.1“ is hidden from prying eyes. In this case, it is an original writing by the great English writer Charles Dickens.
Our edition is a tribute to one of his most popular stories 'A Christmas Carol', which has been filmed a number of times. Dickens tells the heart-warming story of the old miser Ebenezer Scrooge, who is visited by the three spirits of Christmas in a single night. Scrooge transforms into a friendly and charitable person as a result of this experience.
A current exhibition at the Charles Dickens Museum in London documents how Dickens created the ideal of Christmas with his bestseller in the middle of the 19th century. An ideal whose vision prevails until today. The exhibition, which runs until 19 April 2020, is named "Beautiful Books: Dickens and the Business of Christmas".
We have also come up with a very special extra for this edition. Each bag is delivered with a printed and illustrated facsimile of the first edition of 'A Christmas Carol' in the German translation from 1843.
"Christmas Dream No.1" by SEKRÈ is a truly exclusive gift for someone very special.
