The story
Atelier KATAN is a demi-couture fashion brand specialising in bespoke leather handbags for a high-end clientele. Each piece is crafted from natural Italian leather, combining durability with sculptural elegance. Production is small-scale and sustainable, with most pieces made to order and a limited number of samples available to ship.
The designs draw inspiration from Sumerian history, translating ancient symbolism into contemporary luxury forms. Advanced 3D leather moulding techniques meet traditional handcraft, while metal details are produced by a jeweller to complete each piece with precision and character.
The brand’s current focus is the Ishtar Collection, which embodies Atelier KATAN’s core values: historical depth, sculptural design, and elevated craftsmanship. Every bag is more than an accessory — it is a wearable expression of refined taste and thoughtful design.
