Once Upon A Time...

My love of design was nurtured while under the tutelage of my older brother Kurt, a very talented leather worker. With his encouragement and guidance, I began making pieces of my own, and it soon became my passion – I began to study the traditional leather making processes of old world artisans and applied them to my work.

Influenced by this style and my European heritage, I began to seek out beautiful and unique materials for my purses and handbags. I found that some of the most exquisite qualities of leather comes from years of use, and fell in love with the art of finding USA-sourced tanneries and leathers.

Unique. Just Like You.
