Handbags

My father worked for three decades in the shoe industry with an extensive shoe production experience. Although I did not pursue this career at my early age, I always had the desire to be engaged in leather works. I got this opportunity in 2020 to intern at Mieras Handicraft with one of the leading handicraft professionals in Eritrea who has recently held the first handmade, genuine leather handbags exhibition. We designed more than seventy different types of leather works, mostly handbags. I closely work with him on further honing my capacity as a designer.

Working with our partners at Arts Thread to develop lifelong learning and career opportunities for students of fashion and design. Our partnership provides the opportunity to compete on a world stage, participate in industry led workshops, set up an outstanding portfolio and gain access to the resources that will kickstart careers in fashion and design.
