Celebrating Ten Years: Message From Founder
...
Our luxurious dust bags are an extra layer of protection in caring for your leather-loves. A great cover to pack your leather item into for a trip or store at home and most importantly deliver this investment item to you.
In our mission to localise production for these bags we found SisterWorks.
SisterWorks is a not-for-profit social enterprise supporting migrant women with opportunities to become economically empowered. It’s a powerful community working together and providing safe spaces to learn, develop skills and feel included and confident to thrive in Australia.
Our dust bags are now handmade with love by three sisters in Melbourne, Australia
Originally from Hong Kong she now lives in Australia with her daughter. She was introduced to Sisterworks through friends and owned her own business making ballroom dresses in Hong Kong. With the help of Sisterworks she learned to set up a business in Australia and now creates bags, jewellery and most recently face masks.
Originally from Hong Kong she now lives in Australia with her husband and two kids. She was introduced to Sisterworks through friends from church and loves the people at Sisterworks. They are all nice, make her feel good and enjoys learning to make different types of products, like banners into bags. She also makes uniforms for the chefs on Master Chef.
