“A bright, colourful clutch is a great statement piece that never goes out of style.”- Tinsley Mortimer

In A Technological Era, Handmade is Still Evergreen & Niche

Handcrafted items still have a unique story and “handmade” is gaining strength among those who want to rediscover the real value of products, searching for a quality that can never be given by mass production. Supporting the local artisans and our economy too, many bags and accessories brands have opted to keep the traditional artwork still alive in their designs. Handcrafted clutches are rare and unique as no two handmade designs are the same, and one can find a small difference in colour, texture, shape, and style between two goods that makes every product special. They bear the efforts, thoughts, and sincere little optimizations of the craftsman. The complexity and intricate detail demonstrate the fruit of the development that the artist brings into each clutch and handbag. Reinforced stitching in handmade clutches provides added strength to the material that allows the handbag or clutches intact for a longer period. The fabric used in making handmade clutches are safe for the environment which means no toxic chemicals are used. Another key factor to go for handmade clutches is the customization the buyers can opt for to suit their tastes and preferences. Thus, investing in handmade clutches is worth paying money that lasts longer and one can even pass down to the next generation.

The trend for handmade punjabi juttis, Kolhapuri sandals, loafers, casuals and wedges in variety of digital prints, hand-painted patterns, hand embroideries, ornamentation, embellishments are in vogue these days. Shifting from leather and other animal derived materials, consumer sensibilities have drifted towards traditional and indigenous designs with sustainable & environment-friendly designs.
