Natural Nuance Design for Circularity
Circular design for a greener future
We are an independent, women-led European boutique brand. Inspired by authentic lifestyles we create designs for women and men who want high quality accessories made with sustainable, organic materials. We design handbags made with vegetable tanned leather, that is toxin free and extremely durable. Our designs are made to last for a long time and to facilitate a second product lifecycle of the material. We source and manufacture within Europe, we work with small suppliers and artisans that operate to good ethical standards. We work with a zero waste cut policy in production.
