QUALITY

The excellency of traditional craftmanship in every detail

ETHICALLY HANDCRAFTED IN PORTUGAL, OUR HANDBAGS COMBINE CRAFTSMANSHIP WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY MATERIALS.

In a small village in the South of Portugal, next to the cork trees forests where we source most of the materials for our fabrics, take place the production of all our collections. In our workshop, all our handbags are fashioned entirely by hand with the utmost finesse. We take pride in the combination of our craftsmanship expertise with the natural environment in which our workshop is located. This results in care of attention to detail, a footprint which is embedded to all our bags.

Involved with our artisans every step of the way

As we visit our factory diligently we have built a personal relationship with our manufacturing partner; they too are a part of the Murmali family. Our involvement in the creation of our accessories ensures their integrity along the process. Every single design is also tested against wear and tear. That is how we ensure our handbags are as functional and resistant as they are unique.

That is why each handbag is a guarantee of quality. Composed of carefully selected natural materials, some bags require nearly four hours of manufacturing and eighty assembly steps.

Slow aware production

Slow fashion is a term that represents a production method which has become fashionable during the past few years. It emphasizes quality over quantity as a way of achieving sustainability in the fashion industry. For Murmali, this has never been something we intended. We did not start our brand aiming for slow production. We wanted to achieve excellence and we discovered this could only be achieved by doing it slowly.

We care about every single accessory we produce, we simply take our time. That's why all our beautiful bags deserve to be recognized separately and not just as part of a collection. For this reason we give to all of them a different serial number.
