Eight - Leather Handbag
Not available for sale - coming soon.
The Linear Leather Handbag
Crafted from narrow strips of reclaimed leather, hand-assembled in a continuous linear composition. The structure is built from a series of figure-of-eights — a shape repeated throughout the construction that gives the bag its name. Each strip is cut and stitched by hand, creating a quiet rhythm in tone and texture.
This piece was developed as part of an ongoing design study, exploring form through waste. It’s the result of trial, error, and a lot of improvisation — an exercise in structure, balance, and restraint.
Not available for purchase yet. This bag is part of a personal research project, and may be released in limited numbers at a later date.

How to Care for Your Leather Accessory
To keep your leather looking good, a little care goes a long way:
- Clean gently: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. Don’t soak the leather—water can damage it.
- Condition occasionally: Every few months, rub in a bit of leather conditioner to keep it soft. This especially helps with vegetable-tanned leather, which can dry out.
- Avoid direct sunlight: Leather will naturally develop a patina, but too much sun can cause uneven fading.
- Keep it dry: If it gets wet, dry it gently with a cloth and let it air dry. Don’t use heat—let it dry naturally.
- Store properly: When you’re not using it, keep it in a cool, dry place. Don’t stack heavy stuff on it, or it might lose shape.
