Lucy is a designer and artisan of handbags, and accessories, from Cambridge, England.
She has specialised in leather handbag design and production since 2012.
Since founding her brand in 2022, Lucy has built-up a library of contemporary classics, to be enjoyed by all who wear them.
The mission is to make gorgeous products,
locally, and consciously...
Each bag is produced hand within her London studio, using Italian vegetable-tanned leather, and organic cottons.
They are then treated with natural oils and finishes, to enhance their natural markings, and increase longevity.
OUR LEATHERS
Vegetable-taned leather is processed using a combination of naturally occurring tannins such as tree bark, wood, leaves and fruit pods. This ancient process creates a distinctively beautiful material that's rich in tone and natural markings which cannot be emulated by chemically tanned or plastic-faux leather. Through the process of vegetable tanning, leather can mature beautifully over the passage of time. Thus giving each product a unique and personal quality.
