Steven Harkin Design

Steven Harkin Design produce a range of luxury leather handbags with a distinctive design signature, contemporary shapes and effortless style available in a range of rich, vibrant colours. Using traditional handcraft techniques, Steven Harkin gives his designs a contemporary relevance with inspiration from the clean lines of modernist architecture and automotive design. “I see my work as a sculptural object and am influenced by the craft of it,” says Harkin. “I want to maintain a pure, clean look. Refined detail is important. All our leather products are designed and made in our Essex workshop, with quality Italian leathers and pigskin Suede linings. The company releases new models and timeless designs seasonally in keeping with the fashion calendar. Who buys Steven Harkin’s bags: Women and men who like to state their individuality and want to stand out of the crowd, who do not like logos repeated a hundred times on their real or fake designer bag. Our place is in a niche market, we target independent boutiques whose customers are willing to spend those one or two hundred pounds more for a quality leather bag with a line and a character that mass produced cheap bags and so recognizable expensive designer bags lack.
