Embellished Truth was to create beautiful and desirable accessories using traditional craftsmanship, without the heavy price to customers. They were one of the first UK brands to use chrome-free leather in their collections, with each bag made at a family-run factory in East London.
The bags are produced on a made-to-order to comply with their zero-waste policy. Excess leather off-cuts are further used to make accessories such as wrist cuffs, zip pulls and jewellery.
Embellished Truth was shortlisted as a finalist for the Ethical Fashion Forum’s Innovation Award in 2012. In 2013, the brand was awarded the Blue Butterfly positive mark by Positive Luxury.
