We are Arana Studios, born in Barcelona in 2022 by the hand of Mauro and Cristina, with the goal of shaking up the leather accessories industry.
After several years working in fashion, we recognized a gap in sustainability within the leather goods industry. That's why our mission is to redefine premium bags by replacing traditional leather with innovative vegan biomaterials, creating accessories that not only care for the planet but also capture the hearts of those who love bags as much as we do.
Why Biomaterials?
When it comes to handbags, there are only two options to choose from: leather and plastic. We wanted to create a new category for bag lovers eager to explore innovative materials.
Our vegan biomaterials provide a more sustainable alternative to traditional vegan leather as it has a high percentage of organic content sourced from recycled corn and grape skins.
Designed & Craftedd in Spain
When we started this journey, we knew that we wanted to support the talented artisans of our country.
Along the way, we have met the most talented suppliers, workshops, and pattern makers who have trusted our vision and helpeded us turn it into reality.
Life's too short for boring bags.
There's no point in creating the most sustainable vegan bag if it's not fun to wear.
That's why we place design and sustainability at the core of our company, creating bags that not only earn you compliments but also let you respond with, "Oh, thanks! It's bio-based."
