When something good comes along we take advantage of it A high end handbag factory that had been in business, in the same location, for over 40 years closed their doors (13,000 sq ft!) when the owner of the building sold it. So goes the gentrification of Brooklyn, New York!
Everything was going to be thrown out. We were invited to take what we wanted the day before the factory closed for good. We found beautifully unique leather, linings and hardware that are perfect quality. We knew we could make something of what would have been trashed.
We created Flote- recycles, by merchandising the recycled, repurposed goods and hardware into our collection... and they look fantastic!
No two items are exactly the same-the pattern in the textures varies as it is the nature of the goods. All items are first quality and individually handcrafted in NYC.
(The item in the photo will be posted on the site shortly)
