MATERIALS AND PRODUCTION

All materials are sourced from Europe

Grained leather

We know what you think - when you buy a new bag you're afraid to scratch the leather. That's why we have chosen to work with grained leather. It ages beautifully and doesn't get scratches too easy. We want you to be able to enjoy your bag without worries. We only work with Italian leather to assure the best quality. Also - we are proud to work with a supplier that is LWG Gold Rated and holding a Blauer Engel certificate - two important certificates in making the production process of leather as sustainable as possible. You can read more about them here and here. We have chosen to work with leather instead of synthetics based on two important reasons:

1. We want the quality last and not tear off because of poor materials. If taken care of properly, leather can hold up to about 100 years - a perfect bag to give to the next generation of strong women.

2. Cow leather is a by-product from the meat industry - instead of discarding the leather, we believe it's a better option to use it.

Light gold metalware

We have handpicked the hardware to assure the best quality and design. All metals are sourced from Italy, where the bag lock is custom made to add a unique detail to our bags.

Bag lining

The fabric inside each bag is made of a beautiful beige cotton sourced from Sweden. The label is made from 100% recycled polyester made from plastic bottles, produced and sourced from Portugal.

Production in Estonia

When choosing the perfect production site for our bags, we had certain criterion that needed to be met. The first, was that we wanted to have a factory close to Sweden to minimize carbon footprint in transportation. The second was that the factory needed to secure high quality and knowledge in leather and bags. The third and most important one, was that the factory workers have good work conditions. This narrowed down to us finding the perfect partner, a small family-owned factory located in Estonia. Below is some facts about our factory in Estonia.

Continuous improvement

We believe that our products can improve over time based on your feedback. That's why we label our collections to keep track on improvements we make. It can be everything from changing the dimensions to adding or removing details. The first collection is labeled 1st Edition, and if we make any alterations we will label it 2nd Edition etc. It's the journey that's fun, right?
