About Emma Easter Handcrafted
Handcrafted Bags Made for Real Life
Every bag I make is intended to be part of everyday life, not saved for best.
I work from my studio in South East Wales, individually handcrafting bags and purses using carefully sourced materials, including authentic Harris Tweed® cloth. My focus is on quality construction, thoughtful finishing, and practicality, so each piece can be used often and enjoyed for years.
I believe a well made handbag should feel personal, functional, and quietly distinctive. My work is centred on careful making, considered materials, and attention to detail, rather than trends or mass production.
Craftsmanship you can feel
Each bag and purse is made by hand, one at a time. I cut, sew, assemble, and finish every piece myself, paying close attention to construction and durability.
Materials are chosen for how they perform in daily life as well as how they look. Water resistant linings help protect everyday essentials, and careful finishing ensures each piece stands up to regular use. These are not occasional accessories. They are pieces made to be lived with.
Quality, for me, comes from care, consistency, and accountability.
Working with British heritage materials
Harris Tweed® cloth is woven in the Outer Hebrides using traditional methods and protected by its own Act of Parliament. Each length of cloth carries generations of craft and regional heritage.
When I work with Harris Tweed®, I am combining that historic material with careful contemporary making. No two pieces of cloth are ever the same, which means each finished bag has its own character and individuality.
Made slowly and in limited numbers
I make in limited numbers, focusing on quality over quantity. Working this way allows me to give each piece the time and attention it deserves.
Availability is naturally limited, and pieces are not mass produced. When a particular fabric or style is no longer available, it may not return in the same form. This is a natural part of slow, small scale making.
I believe buying fewer, well made pieces leads to a more meaningful relationship with the things we carry every day.
A considered approach to making
Emma Easter Handcrafted is built on honesty, traceability, and respect for craft. Every piece is carefully made and personally supported by the same hands.
If you are here, you likely value craftsmanship, heritage materials, and thoughtful making.
