About me

After a wonderful time exploring Textiles Design at Falmouth University I followed my dream of becoming a Cornish Designer. To enhance my skills I attended a couple of courses in London ,to become a leather handbag maker. This is where I discovered the wonderful world of leather as soon as I started to work with the fantastic leathers I was hooked. I found the ranges so inspiring, soft Napa leather, to patent Italian leather, and the wonderful bright coloured leathers. Then there’s the fabulous Suede’s personally I adore soft black suede. So I decided to become a luxury leather handbag maker, and worked hard to produce my online leather handbag shop, with all of my designs, its taken a while to get my handbag collection made.
I love to give the wearer a treat inside by using the prettiest fabrics, my aim is to produce pieces that are individual, of high quality, durable and most importantly ‘make the wearer feel special even on the dullest of days’!
My handcrafted bags are, available in a variety of colours and various superior leathers, I also frequently take on commissions, so don’t hesitate to get in contact ‘My bags are not throw-away fashion…they are pieces of art that will last a lifetime'
