Hester Van Eeghen

Inspired by history, everyday life and her own life experiences, Hester van Eeghen creates luxury leather goods that are as unique as they are innovative. Whimsy, color, and unexpected surprises are at the heart of her handbag designs, with many of her pieces having convertible straps, hidden pockets or even expandable sides! Butterflies, vintage US mailboxes and her father’s portable transistor radio have all served as catalysts for her iconic work.

“Of course you have the classic Hermes and Chanel bags, but bags created as a surprise, as something you cannot resist opening, those were hard to find.”
