   Studio Auckland

Before Studio Auckland came about, I was sewing my own clothing, children’s clothing, baby layettes, toys, dolls, gifts and home goods. I spent months handstitching each seam of my Guipure lace wedding gown — and I loved every minute of it.

Then one day I was introduced to a unique and sustainable material — Cork fabric.

This high-quality fabric is so luxurious and is produced in such beautiful colors and textures. I felt deeply that I could not be the only one who would fall in love with the qualities of cork. I began making bags and accessories that are admired by men and women alike.

I’m very proud…

that in 2017, I signed PETA’s Statement of Assurance verifying that my handmade cork product is vegan, and Studio Auckland was granted the use of the “PETA-Approved Vegan” logo. 

My hand is present in my work…

and that’s a really good thing. Whether my products speak to your luxurious side, your eco-conscious side and/or your animal-friendly side, I am sure you are going to love the attention you receive from friends as you go about and Carry Your World. 

I introduce…

Studio Auckland and my stylish, earth- and animal-friendly products. The response has been epic from everyone who sees them and that keeps me inspired to continue creating handmade items for you.
Enjoy,
