Our Impact

People

We collaborate with Italian and French artisans who are highly specialized in their craft. We want them to feel free to do what they do best, collaborating with them and paying a fair price for their unique skill set.

Production

Everything we make is made in small batches to minimize waste and excess. We adjust our process depending on demand to ensure a tight circle of inventory that gets sold, not shelved.

Design and Quality

Our products are timeless and versatile. They're made from Italian-quality materials that are meant to get more valuable over time, not forgotten after a season to end up in the bin.

Pricing

Our products are not considered "cheap", nor do we want them to be. Instead, they're priced fairly to reflect all of the above. It's what you can expect year-round, as we rarely offer massive discounts in order to honor each step of the process.

Our Materials

Nappa Leather

Leather has a longstanding history within textiles and we use it for its natural origins and durability. It is a material that is meant to withstand the elements, as well as be easily repaired if damaged. We strive to create products that are versatile, timeless, and can be used for years to come.

Suede Leather

Similar to Nappa leather, we work with suede for its durability and pliability. Suede is very soft and provides a unique look and feel, adding an element of texture and dimension to classic pieces, as well as holding up to everyday use.

Vachetta Leather

A premium form of leather, Vachetta is renowned for its ability to age and create its own, more valuable, patina. This makes it a prized investment piece. We use a form of Vachetta that is full-grain and vegetable-tanned with a natural, nearly untreated finish.

Natural Raffia

Pliable and practical, raffia is ideal for any kind of exploring as it won’t shrink with moisture and is sturdy enough for daily use. Left in its natural form, it’s also biodegradable and compostable—produced from fast-growing trees that are harvested multiple times a year.

Cotton Lining

We use a natural cotton lining inside our best-selling Elena totes that is both durable and soft, protecting the inside of the leather and cushioning your valuables. To clean, simply pull out the lining (it will remain attached at the rim) to spot clean with Marseille soap.
