Handmade in the Netherlands
Leather bags
Are you looking for a unique leather bag , handcrafted in the Netherlands? At SA Design, you'll find handmade leather bags made entirely in our studio on the Vinkeveense Plassen lakes, centrally located between Amsterdam and Utrecht. We design and handcraft each leather bag in small quantities, with a focus on quality and sustainability .
We collaborate with trusted suppliers in the Netherlands, Spain, and Italy for high-quality leather . This allows us to know exactly where our leather comes from and guarantee the highest quality. For every leather bag, we first create a sample and test it ourselves to ensure its functionality and durability. Only when we are 100% satisfied do we add the bag to our collection.
SA Design stands not only for craftsmanship but also for personal service and local production . Our Dutch workshop ensures short lines of communication, resulting in a sustainable footprint and excellent service for all our customers.
It's all in the details
the manufacturing process
Our handmade leather bags are carefully finished to ensure quality and durability . For example, we use Italian edge dye to give the leather edges extra protection and a refined finish. This artisanal process is time-consuming: dyeing the edges per piece can take up to two hours. A custom leather bag sometimes consists of more than 30 different pieces, resulting in a unique result .
Before we assemble the bag, we often spend several days cutting and preparing all the components. Only when everything is ready does the sewing begin. This artisanal process takes time, but it ensures you'll have a unique, handmade leather bag that perfectly suits your needs. This way, you'll have a bag you'll enjoy for years to come.
Making a leather bag is a labor-intensive process. We believe it's important to keep you informed along the way. It's wonderful to see your handmade leather bag take shape step by step.
high-quality materials
types of leather
We use various types of high-quality leather to create our handmade leather bags. All leathers are sourced from certified sources and are tanned to a high standard. Cowhide is our preferred choice for its strength and durability. This leather is also available in a naturally tanned version and develops an even more beautiful appearance with age.
Goatskin and lambskin are popular for their softness and flexibility. We use these leathers, for example, for the tassels on our wicker bags and for the lining of our leather bags. They have a fine texture and are pleasant to the touch. For example, check out our wicker bags with colored tassels .
Calfskin is a luxurious leather that is ideal for making exclusive handmade leather bags . It has a fine grain and feels very soft. When crafting our handmade leather bags, we pay close attention to the quality of the leather. Each hide is carefully selected and processed to guarantee the best results.
By using high-quality leathers, we create unique, handmade leather bags with a long lifespan and a timeless look . Whether you're looking for a sturdy cowhide bag or a luxurious calfskin bag , there's a handmade bag to suit you.
