Bags without a fashion shelf life

A Lucie Cast bag is neither seasonal nor particularly occasional. Instead, each piece is designed with time-honoured simplicity and crafted with the enduring quality of leather in mind.

With consideration for how our bags feel to wear, what materials are used, and how they are made these are pieces to be cherished and passed through hands for years to come.

Handmade from a single piece of vegetable-tanned leather, our products have no stitching or unnecessary details.

The features are as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing. The bespoke clasp, inspired by the shape of a thumbprint, is designed to be both tactile and a joy to use.

Designed by Lucie in her Totnes studio and handcrafted by Matt and Rick at the nearby Tanner Bates workshop, each piece reflects local craftsmanship along the river Dart.
