Why to buy: THADEN handbags are made to last forever. These wearable sculptures, designed by artist Kristina are made to order in Italy, produced under fair working conditions, with personal relationships to all suppliers, using only certified materials with proof of origin.

The handcrafted signature bag THE WHOLE (available in three diffenrent sizes) is largely hand-sewn due to it´s technical complexity. This vision of precise curves and geometric pleats executed in the finest leather, was seemingly incapable of being manufactured, until Luigi was found - a 89 year old master of Italian leather goods craftsmanship. Like a well-kept secret, a Thaden appeals to someone who asks questions and solves challenges. 

What we love: Women are different, strong, weak, confident, shy, but they are always one thing - heroines. This is what drives the artist Kristina Thaden who wants to create a connection to every women’s inner heroine through wearable artworks. 

Kristina has a background in arts and classical management. Having worked as managing director in various companies her passion always remained in the arts and Thaden is the culmination of her life’s work. As a keen observer of nature, architecture, and everything around her, her creative process begins by transforming her impressions into a physical object, a wearable work of art. Her designs are always a multi-layered examination of what is and what can be. They are luxurious, thought-provoking, and defy traditional ideas of what is possible. A Thaden draws you in and makes you pause to contemplate, ask questions, and observe.

Why to buy: MEJURI is a fine jewelry brand built with a lens of diversity, equality, inclusion and sustainability. Since the end of 2021, they ensure that 100% of their gold is traceable, 70% of their 14k solid gold products is made with certified recycled gold and 30% is newly mined. Feeling disconnected from an industry that typically markets to men, co-founder and CEO Noura Sakkijha leveraged her learnings as a third-generation jeweler to rethink the way women purchase jewelry for themselves.

Admired for its inherently timeless yet playful aesthetic and beloved 14k gold products, the brand’s celebrity fans include Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Lizzo, Oprah, Bella Hadid, Emily Blunt and Billie Eilish.
