“Each bag is carefully curated by me. Nothing is rushed and very little is made.”

About — Iseult
I'm Iseult, the founder of Studio Isolde. Bags have been my quiet obsession for as long as I can remember — the weight of a strap, the way a woven panel catches the light, the small satisfaction of a closure that sits just right.
Choosing the bag for my outfit on any given day is one of my favourite rituals. It's never a chore; it's a joy. The bag is the decision that pulls everything else together, and I wanted to make the kind you reach for again and again.
Along the way I kept running into the same problem: there was a gap in the market for handcrafted bags that didn't have to break the bank. Beautifully made pieces were priced far out of reach, and everything affordable felt disposable. Studio Isolde exists to sit in between — considered materials, hand made in small batches, at a price that still feels human.
