WENLIH is a leather goods brand founded in Paris, named after its designer. It was born from a continuous dialogue between nature and the feminine inner world. Here is what we do, and why.
A bag as a space, not as a symbol
We do not seek to create a 'style' to wear. We want a design without an imposed style: a bag that is not the emblem of a trend, but a space — a preserved territory where each woman expresses who she is. A bag that accompanies, that understands, and that you take across the city, nature and dreams.
What inspires us
The rotation of the seasons, the lines of plants, the colour of fruit, the smell of the earth, the power of the sea, the silence of the sky. Everything in nature inspires us. We take from it the abstract and the concrete, harmony and contrast, and we make them fit into the small space of a bag.
Concretely, this gives: lines of plant growth drawn in a minimal language; blocks of colour that meet and create a space you can perceive; simple, precise structures, rhythmed like the seasons; materials that answer each other and awaken the sense of touch. This is where joy finds its place and where inner strength grows, discreetly.
Designed in Paris, made in Tuscany
The design is born in Paris. Manufacturing is entrusted to a workshop in Scandicci, near Florence, one of the world's cradles of luxury leather goods. The leathers come from a French tannery in Chabris for the goat, and from an Italian workshop for the lambskin lining. We tell these stages in our article on manufacturing.
Three things we stand for
- A contemporary Parisian design, with its own language, centred on form, colour and elements inspired by nature.
- Tuscan craftsmanship, with experienced artisans.
- A considered price: design, quality leathers and Italian manufacturing, between €349 and €690, without excessive markup.
