Many Arts and Crafts have been lost over time because they can't survive only from the hands of those who make them, but also from those who appreciate them.
Independence, Dignity & Valorization
Today we're blessed to continue our family heritage. But more than that: the legacy of Portugal. Giving continuity to an ancestral art with all ethical and sustainable commitments associated, never before achieved. We believe that the only way to keep the Arts and Crafts alive is to deliver contemporary pieces directly from the Craftsman's hands to yours.
We revolutionized the market just by making it fair, working in a dignified economy.
Esperança Vitória, ArtisanSince the age of 5, I have been working in this art without ever receiving a penny. I made a lot of baskets like those you can still find today on fairs for sale by retailers, and a lot even in stores. The biggest pity I have is to know that whoever made all those pieces, never received worthily for them. I made Victoria handmade a turning point in this market. And I regret those who have not been able to do so before.
Carla Maria, ArtisanFor some reason I gave up on this art at the first opportunity. No one had ever been able to guarantee worker rights in this Art, or support the family just by working on it. How could I be the first? I have calluses on my hands that are still from my childhood, of my fingers intertwining between the reed and jute on the loom. Even after being away for 20 years, they are still here. Today with great pride.

Other important things when comes to take care of your Victoria Handmade bag:
REED
• The reed body is delicate but robust, this means the reed body can endure knocks and bumps but a little extra care is needed when using the bag, just like other material kind of bags - don't forget to use the beeswax here!
• Our baskets have been thoroughly tested over the years to withstand various conditions. The traditional Portuguese basket existed for decades, and has always been used in the most varied conditions and occasions. At Victoria Handmade we keep the ancestral production methods unchanged, so the quality of your piece is of the highest handmade quality.
• Our bags are completely waterproof, but we suggest avoiding any heavy rain, like you should do in any kind of bag.
• Being a plant, the reed does not adhere to all type of colors. This singularity makes that slight differences in shade from reed to reed happens due to its uniqueness.
ECO-FRIENDLY LEATHER:
• Our vegetable tanned leather shows off the material in its most natural state, maintaining natural flaws and markings. We select carefully the most beautiful ones.
• With proper care, vegetable tanned leather can last many decades. Every few months we recommend applying a little of beeswax (we offer it!) to the leather and rubbing it with a soft cloth (as well as in the reed, don't forget that!).
STORAGE
• While not in use, keep your bag away from closed cupboards and poor ventilated rooms. Store it in it's own sac on a dry place where circulates air (eg. hanging on a hanger, open cupboards - never closed -, etc.) Before storage it, apply a good layer of beeswax across the piece with a cloth.
Two bags are never equal, this is where the essence of each piece persists, unique made especially for you. We hope you enjoy every detail of your victoria handmade, knowing that we work with all the care and dedication to deliver you the highest quality craftsmanship.
This is Josefa basket, a tribute to our great cousin. A woman of fight. Always classy and elegant. A fearless woman despite the losses she has suffered throughout life, never stopped smiling back.
This piece makes part of our Saudade Colletion, that is a tribute to a group of women, each unique and distinct that intertwine for their determination and independence laudable. Women of our family, who touched our hearts, with whom we laughed, celebrated and learned. That we love forever; that leave us an infinite ‘’saudade’’ | noun: missing, longing - nostalgia.

This is Joaquina basket, a tribute to our aunt. A woman of hope. Always dreamy, letting yourself be led by faith and willingness to fulfill its desires. She was a caring and cherished woman.
