About us

At Lorien Africa, we craft premium leather bags and other leather goods with a purpose. Our products go beyond mere accessories; they represent a commitment to ethical sourcing and social responsibility. Each piece is meticulously handmade using leather that is ethically sourced as a byproduct of the meat industry in Kenya. We believe in sustainability, ensuring that no resources go to waste, and that our leather is obtained in an environmentally conscious manner. But our ethos extends further than just responsible sourcing.

We are proud to collaborate with Maasai women artisans from Kajiado, Kenya, empowering them economically through fair trade practices. The intricate beading on many of our products is a testament to their skill and dedication. These Maasai women artisans work from home, allowing them to take care of their households while earning a fair income. By providing fair wages and fostering a supportive work environment, we aim to contribute to the empowerment and economic independence of these artisans. With every purchase from Lorien Africa, you're not only acquiring a beautifully crafted piece, but you're also supporting a community-driven approach to craftsmanship and ethical business practices.
