Oxblood Red and Midnight Black. Clean lines, exposed interiors and hand stitching complete the sense of pared back luxury and craftsmanship which is the epitome of Paradise Row's style.
Starting out as a fashion and accessories brand, Paradise Row has evolved into a lifestyle brand, with collections across homeware, tableware, stationery and personal accessories. Among its increasingly prestigious client base are hotels, restaurants, interior designers and corporates looking for luxury, sustainable leather goods across a range of applications.
The luxurious packaging with Paradise Row's logo embossed on recyclable paper, demonstrate the brands positioning as a conscious luxury gifting brand. Founded by Nika Diamond-Krendel in 2017 and now run by her and her husband Nick, Paradise Row only uses sustainable materials including recyclable packaging and the finest vegetable tanned leather from ISO certified tanneries in Belgium and Italy.
Vegetable Tanned Leather
Paradise Row's leather is made naturally through vegetable tanning, an old world artisanal method which is chromium-free. Only around 10% of the world's leather is made using this fair trade practice which takes advantage of the tannic acids naturally found in bark, leaves and fruit.
This is not only more sustainable but results in a more premium and durable product with deeper, richer colours that develop their own unique character over time.
The thickness of the leather enables the product to hold its shape and provides a contemporary stripped back look, showing the natural leather both inside and out. Unlike the heavily pigmented articles used in most commercial leather, our leather will age beautifully over time - the more wear it gets, the more unique and distinctive your Paradise Row product will become.
Design
Marking a break from the gender-defined products of traditional leather brands, Paradise Row's designs bridge the contemporary and the classic, ensuring each product is cherished for a lifetime.
Complimenting the natural, artisanal process of vegetable tanning leather, the product range is available in a signature colour palette of Whisky Tan, Forest Green, Petroleum Blue, Oxblood Red and Midnight Black.
Clean lines, exposed interiors and hand-stitching complete the sense of pared back luxury and craftsmanship which is the epitome of Paradise Row's style.
Instructions for Care
Should your products become dirty through use, the best thing to do is to wipe them down with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth or baby wipe. For more stubborn stains, we would recommend using a glycerine-based leather/saddle soap such as Lettro or Fiebing as using only water can have the opposite effect of drying out your leather product. If you don't have one of these to hand, a little bit of baby shampoo is a good alternative. Any chemical or alcohol based cleaning products should be avoided as these can damage the leather.
Frequent cleaning of your product can cause the original protective layer to wear over time. To restore and protect your product, you can use either a leather conditioning product or beeswax. This rehydrates the leather and provides a protective seal, guarding against future spillages, wear and tear. Ensure your product is clean and dry first before applying in small quantities with a dry cloth, in a circular rubbing motion.
THE DETAILS
Each of the distinctive handbag collections feature gold-plated fittings, providing a striking sense of luxury and refinement, contrasting beautifully against the natural vegetable-tanned leather.
The fittings are a focal point of the bags, firmly rooting the collections in the stories which inspired and made them. These individually designed fittings adorn the front of each bag which, along with the accompanying story cards, tell the compelling story of the collection.
All Paradise Row products are shipped in either recyclable boxes or corn starch mailers and are further wrapped in luxurious recyclable branded boxes, ensuring your order is both well protected and visually enticing, demonstrating our ambition to be the go-to luxury leather gifting brand.
