I’ve read dozens of articles which talk about the fascinating world of hand-made bags where the authors waxed lyrical about how luxury Hermes and Louis Vuitton creations are lovingly hand crafted, following decades of tradition. Well we were green with envy when our friends over at FabSugarUK were invited to tour the Mulberry bag factory in Bath, England the other week and watched a Mulberry Alexa bag made from start to finish. Check out Laura’s photos of each step – though the sheets of leathers makes the whole process rather unglamorous, but it goes to show just how much work goes into making an intricate handbag.
