Meet the Maker
Welcome to Torres Handmade! I am a passionate designer and maker with a degree in Fashion Design from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. Handbags have been the primary focus for many years, and my deep love for craftsmanship is rooted in my childhood. Growing up surrounded by creativity and talent, I was fortunate to be raised by an artist father, a seamstress mother, and a shoemaker grandfather, and a grandmother who was a quilter, all of whom exposed me to the beauty of handmade items and crafts from an early age.
With over a decade of experience (but not brave enough to sell to the masses), I am now creating each piece with a careful eye for detail, blending style and sustainability. All handmade creations are from my studio in New York City, and my designs reflect a timeless commitment to quality and artistry, while the use of eco-friendly materials showcases my dedication to making beautiful and affordable products. These products include wallets, pouches, wristlets, totes and purses.
My style is more minimalist but elegant. Materials such as waxed canvas, vegetable leather, cork fabric, vinyls, and cloth are sourced in the United States.
Thank you for visiting Torres Handmade!

How it’s Made
This handmade wallet is meticulously crafted from eco-friendly cork fabric, a sustainable material known for its durability and unique texture. The process begins with selecting high-quality cork fabric, sourced from renewable cork oak trees from Portugal and Spain, ensuring both an eco-conscious and premium product. The cork fabric is cut to precise dimensions, ensuring a perfect fit for each piece.
Next, the wallet is sewn together with attention to detail, using strong yet subtle stitching to maintain the minimalist aesthetic while ensuring durability. Two smooth-operating zippers are thoughtfully added, offering secure compartments for cash, cards, IDs, and coins, while maintaining the sleek design.
Each wallet is then carefully inspected for quality before being finished with a final touch to enhance its natural, sophisticated appearance. The result is a functional, stylish, and sustainable accessory that reflects the artistry and care of its handmade process.
