ATELIER ANQA

CRAFTSMANSHIP REDEFINED

Welcome to ATELIER ANQA

At Atelier Anqa, we not only craft Mianqa’s exquisite bags in-house but also help other brands to develop their sustainable, high-quality accessory collections. Our expertise and dedication ensure that every creation embodies the finest craftsmanship and a commitment to sustainability.

About Us

At Atelier Anqa, we carry over seven decades of leather crafting excellence in our DNA. Our team comprises former designers, developers, and artisans from the world’s leading luxury fashion houses. We are the creators behind some of the most iconic "It Bags."

Rooted in the principles of slow fashion, we take pride in producing unique, handcrafted bags using only the finest leathers and materials. Each creation reflects the precision, care, and expertise of our artisans, many of whom have over 20 years of experience in leather craftsmanship.

Atelier Anqa embodies the philosophy of “fewer but better.” We craft with intention, ensuring every bag is made under ethical conditions and to the highest standards of quality.


Why Choose ATELIER ANQA?

  1. Low Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs)
    Although we are equipped to handle large-scale production, we specialize in small-batch, slow production. By focusing on every detail, we are ensuring high-quality results while remaining flexible for smaller brand needs.

  2. Sustainable Materials
    We have the ability to source easily the innovative, eco-friendly materials that align with modern sustainability goals:

  • Cactus Leather: A plant-based leather alternative known for its high quality texture and durability.
  • Apple Leather: A by-product of the apple juice industry, it’s both durable and environmentally friendly.
  • Olive Leather: Made from olive leaves, it offers a unique texture and sustainable origin.
  • Tea Leather: Derived from tea plant fibers, this material combines strength with eco-consciousness.
  • Raffia: A biodegradable natural fiber perfect for intricate designs.
  • Jute: Another 100% biodegradable option, ideal for rustic, durable pieces.
  • Deadstock Fabrics: We rescue unused materials, giving them new life while reducing waste.
  • Upcycled Leather: Reimagining existing leather to create something extraordinary. 

Each material is chosen with care, considering the design and construction requirements of your product to ensure both beauty and durability.

  1. Ethical and Sustainable Practices
    At Atelier Anqa, we are committed to sustainability and ethical production. Our processes are designed to minimize leather waste, with leftover materials recut and repurposed into the signature patented handwoven designs of Mianqa bags. Learn more about our innovative upcycled handweaving method here. Additionally, we avoid all plastic in our packaging and shipments—right down to the box tapes, which are made from eco-friendly paper. This holistic approach ensures that every aspect of our production aligns with our environmental values..        *leftover tapes repurposed during edgepaint drying stage
  2. Guided by Material Expertise
    Our deep understanding of materials is at the core of what sets us apart. Each material has unique properties that demand specific expertise to bring out its best. Not every bag can be made with every material—proper construction requires careful consideration of the material's characteristics in harmony with the design.

    At Atelier Anqa, we are a material-led atelier. We listen to the material, understand it intimately, and use it in the most appropriate way to ensure durability, functionality, and exceptional craftsmanship. This is our greatest strength. By partnering with us, you gain access to a team that doesn’t just execute designs but actively collaborates, offering expert guidance to optimize construction while respecting the nuances of each material.
