About Me
Hi there, I’m Clare, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my little corner of the world.
For over 32 years, I’ve been crafting leather bags with love, care, and a commitment to quality that comes straight from the heart.
My journey with leather began as a passion project and blossomed into something much bigger—a way to connect with people like you,
who value the beauty and craftsmanship of a well-made bag.
It all started in a small workshop, where I discovered the joy of transforming raw leather into something both beautiful and functional.
There’s something truly special about working with your hands, feeling the texture of the leather, and watching each stitch bring a piece closer to life.
Over the years, my workshop has been home to countless bags, each one unique, just like the wonderful people who carry them.
Since - 1992
Crafting leather bags has always been about more than the end product. It’s about the process, the patience, and the pride of creating something with my own two hands. Each piece I make is infused with a piece of my heart and soul, and I love knowing that it will go on to become part of someone else’s story.
There’s a certain magic in seeing a finished bag and knowing the journey it took to get there—from selecting the perfect piece of leather to adding the final stitch. This is a joy I’ve been blessed to experience every day in my workshop.
A Bittersweet Goodbye: As I prepare to close the doors to my beloved workshop, it’s with mixed emotions. This journey has been incredible, filled with challenges, triumphs, and, most importantly, the connections I’ve made with customers like you. But as one chapter closes, I’m excited about the next steps in my life, even as I say goodbye to this one.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of this journey with me. Your support, kind words, and love for my bags have meant more to me than words can express. This farewell sale is my way of giving back to you, offering a final chance to own a piece of Clare’s Bags before I move on to new adventures.
