One day two of us – journalist (Renata) and architect (Rūta) – had a phone call and a girly talk about unsuccessful shopping while trying to buy a new handbag. If the color was nice – the size wasn’t practical, if the size was ok – the materials weren’t good enough, and so on. Ant then a phrase came from one of us – “We could do it better. Would you join me to create something we both dream of and can’t find in usual shops”? And the word came into a body – soon we met for the first sketches.
The models of handbags were drawn in a few days, as we both knew what we need. We dreamed of natural and cozy looking materials – that’s why genuine leather and natural wool felt were chosen.

NATURAL AND SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS

Then we started a search of best quality leather and wool felt. We have chosen factory-felted and 100% natural wool felt, which is made in a small country of Anykščiai, in Lithuania. This felt is highly valued because of it’s characteristics:
- resistance for humidity, that means the manufactures doesn’t change their form;
- resistance to wear and tear that mean it will look good even if wearied every day.
The leather we use is brought from Italy. It’s genuine and has a matte varnish on top, so that the leather would be better protected from scratches, wear and tear, as well as from humidity.

INSPIRED BY ETNO

When the materials were chosen the idea to decorate our manufactures came organically and intuitively.
We both love our country, we both find that the herritage of our culture is very important so we decided to bring the etno motives to a second life. We have looked through old books and other materials, took some symbols and created new patterns. We think that these patterns engraved on genuine leather look modern and stylish and match the lifestyle of thesedays. And what’s most important – we love to create them!

WITH LOVE AND BEST WISHES

We hope that our products will be attractive not only due to their quality and the used fabrics, but also graphic aesthetics.
We make it with love and for your inspiration we add a motivating or inspiring quote inside of bags, so that every time you open them – you smile and feel positive.

With love,
