We are seekers of the beautiful, the unusual, the fantastical, and everyday curiosities.
Compliments all around! Love this bag, it's cute and goes with everything. Great quality and I love the 2 inner pockets, rare in a small bag!
I'm so in love with my special bag, so different than the common designer bags in the market. Thank you for making something so creative and different!
I have many bags and wallets from Min and Mon and will probably not buy from any other brand. They are so different and well made... They look compact but they hold everything I need.
MAKE IT YOURS
The boldest statement is the one that's your own!
Choose your handbag, then customize it with a charm and a strap.
OUR WAY
All of our prints are lovingly made by hand.
We show the human aspect and use these purposely imperfect and one-of-a kind drawings as a statement, standing against products that lack soul and humanity.
All of our art is manually screen-printed, with a person giving personal touch to each piece of leather!
OUR INSPIRATION
We are a New York City based, handbag label.
Our inspiration often comes from city living. Its hustle and bustle, messiness and charm, is a constant reminder of who we are.
New York City is an assault on all our senses. It energizes and exhausts. This duality is often translated into our designs, we seek to explore and experience, never conforming to the standard.
OUR ROOTS
Handmade does take time, but we are investing time and life into every bag and each and every one of our customers.
The techniques that we use are labor intensive because we value the human connection behind the process and the enduring product that it creates.
We handcraft our leather handbags in Colombia. Our quality and attention to detail is rooted in a time-tested leather workmanship tradition of the Andes.
OUR ARTISANS
There is a long tradition of leather crafting in Colombia. However, because of cheap labor overseas, the craftsmen are rapidly disappearing.
We support our artisans and help them grow their businesses. Meet Wendy, pictured on the left. “I started young. My uncle works with leather in his shop and he needed my help, so I learned with him.” Wendy now works next to her sister Julieth and helps with quality control.
Sewing is a goal of hers, “you need a steady hand” she says. “I sometimes laugh at the characters I get to assemble, they are so fun and I feel they are looking at me.”

Artisan Made
Intricate work by experienced and talented artisans, using their hands, but mainly their hearts.
Accessible Art
We push the boundaries of art and fashion. Our canvas is carried on a shoulder not in a collection.
Inspired
Our inspiration often comes from city living. New York City is a great source for that inspiration.
