Each product is made to last, made to love, and made by hand.
Our promise is to provide dignity to Guatemalan women through purposeful employment and a living wage.
We believe in protecting this Earth. Our collections consist of recycled fabric and naturally-tanned, chemical-free leather.
We use vegetable-tanned leather, which is a natural, eco-friendly tanning process. We believe there is beauty in the uniqueness, and each handmade product has a story.
These vibrant products are 100% handmade from recycled Guatemalan huipil. You’re not just carrying a practical accessory—you’re honoring the rich artistry and history of the Mayan people.
Mixing modern chic with Guatemalan tradition, this group of products supports a co-op of women in a rural village as they fight for better economic, educational, & healthcare opportunities for their families.
What if there was a way for talents—passed down from ancestors—to be combined with dreams of entrepreneurship? What if the grace and fire of a woman could forge a brighter future? There is a way.
The Bella Belt Bag is a vibrant fusion of culture, craftsmanship, and versatility. Handcrafted in Guatemala, each bag is truly one of a kind, featuring a portion of vintage huipil fabric—the traditional, colorful textile worn by indigenous women. The interior is lined with vintage corte fabric, repurposed from skirts worn in these same communities.
Made from premium full-grain leather, the Bella Belt Bag includes a removable, adjustable leather belt, allowing for multiple styling options: wear it as a belt bag, across the body, or carry it as a chic clutch.
Every purchase supports our mission of empowering artisans through dignified labor and fair wages.
We use vegetable-tanned leather, a natural tanning process using bark and leaves as tannins. Unlike chrome tanning—which often produces consistent, mark-free leather at the expense of local ecosystems—our leather has a unique character, with charming inconsistencies and subtle markings that tell a story. These markings can often be minimized with a small amount of leather conditioner.
Please Note: The leather and textile colors in photos may vary slightly due to studio lighting.

My bag is awesome. But I loved hearing about the woman who made it even more. Great company!
