By Melanie Kruger   |  

If there’s one thing a woman simply can’t live without, it’s a designer handbag. It’s the most functional accessory you’ll ever purchase, looks great on your arm, and if you’re lucky, will last you for years to come. Not only that, but it can pull together even the simplest of outfits to ensure that you look smart and sophisticated at all times, making it an essential daily companion that you’re proud to be seen with.

Of course, it’s not just the style-conscious woman who requires some form of luggage, with more men that ever now opting for a stylish man-bag over the rather frowned-upon practice of stuffing possessions in trouser pockets. And, whether you’re male or female, jetsetter or entrepreneur, there’s no escaping that the right choice of bag will get you a long way in life.

So, be it a trusty piece of hand-luggage, a stylish brief-case or a chic every-day backpack, what should you be looking out for when it comes to making your next investment? The obvious answers are both style and quality. It’s not always as simple as it sounds to find a bag which offers both in equal measures – but has got the balance on point is Arsante of Sweden.

Founded in 2015 by Andreas Höynälä, this Swedish, family-run brand boasts a growing capsule collection of ten quality leather bags, and was born of a philosophy based on providing the finest quality in luxury suitcases, handbags, luggage and accessories whilst making a statement against today’s consumer orientated lifestyle. Aiming to bring back good old, on-the-go luxury, the brand has successfully managed to fuse comfortable style with design dominated by clean shapes, minimalism and excellent quality. It’s a brand with a clear mission – and one that shines through in each of its meticulously designed bags.

Each Arsante bag is handmade from superior genuine leather – and, whilst some brands have been known to place focus on exterior appearances alone, Arsante is very aware that it’s what’s on the inside that counts, too – with all linings made from durable, industry-grade materials to ensure that all bags last. When preparing to part with your hard-earned cash, it’s exactly what you would hope for.

“We know that our customer is style conscious, has an eye for detail, quality and a deep appreciation for products that are handmade in the Nordics to last a lifetime”, says Höynälä.

“Every material used to create our bags is carefully selected by our production team to suit the different types we have in our collection. We only source the best quality available in the market today, and our bags are made from full grain, bovine leather, while the interior is lined with durable industry grade cotton.”

But it’s not just the bags themselves that offer such superior quality, with every last detail given careful consideration.

“The design of our bags is a crucial element as we strive to create bags that have a minimalist and sophisticated look. Every aspect and detail of our bags has been carefully thought out, with use and wearability given special consideration.”, says Joan Keya-Bergström, Head of Marketing at Arsante of Sweden.

“Our zippers are from the Italian company Raccagni, one of the world’s most renowned zipper manufacturers. Our zipper pullers are one-of-a-kind, with each handcrafted from vintage aircraft metal which is then molded and polished in the shape of an airplane propeller. It really adds some extra character to our bags, and is one of the things that makes them so unique.

“The handles, meanwhile, are made to be comfortable and sturdy. We use two layers of leather that are folded to make our rounded handles. They are then reinforced with fine stitching, which is done by our artisans with the utmost precision. This technique ensures that the handles give the most comfort without compromising of the design and style of the bag. All bags are also typically designed to fit your MacBook – from the smallest MacBook to 15’’ MacBook Pro.”

Arsante of Sweden, it seems, has got all bases covered when it comes to providing you with the perfect bag – no matter what its intended purpose. With quality and quantity in equal measures, along with a stylish yet minimalistic look that is versatile enough to be used by just about anyone, an Arsante bag is certain to be a great investment.
