Both Christo and Johanna have been managing careers in graphic design and interior styling for years, developing their bags, cushions, scarves and prints on the side, juggling corporate demands and artistic expression until finally throwing in the corporate towel and committing 100% to being designers, artists and makers.

Inspired by a motorbike trip through India Christo designed and handmade a messenger bag with a wide strap that would sit perfectly across the chess, could be loaded up and had a zip to protect valuables.

This bag, which we still love, inspired our first 'journeyman bag range', bags that accompany you on the road, that travel well and don't mind a bit of dirt and tough action.

Because we travel a lot and can't go past any fabric shop without buying we have collected a huge collection of beautiful fabrics which we use as linings. The fabric rolls we have only ever last for a limited number of bags, so there's only ever 10 bags top of each kind.

We have only just started, are extremely excited to give this our all and see what happens.

We are currently experimenting with casting our own buckles in bronze to make everything even more handmade, so come back and check what we're doing next.

Thanks for reading this, thanks for visiting!

Best
Johanna + Christo Everingham
