Have you ever looked at a piece of art and fell in love? What about a handbag? Imagine falling in love with art on a handbag. You can do that with a new brand of luxury handbags out of Canada.

1UV : piece of art in the closet!

1uv Designs launched just over a year ago and has been turning heads with their unique idea. They cut up art, original art, not copies, and combine it with Italian leather from Santa Croce sull’Arno located on the banks of the Arno river just east of Pisa. An area famous for vegetable tanning for generations.

The art comes from an artist named Kent Thomson  who uses incredible colours in his beautiful paintings. The canvas paintings are cut up by hand after they have been coated with a matte finish to protect them from the weather. The leather used is not always black or brown, but often orange, cognac, burgundy, making the bags truly stand out.

These bags aren’t for everyone, they are for those who love to be unique and stand out from the rest. If you love art and fashion these bags are the perfect accessory for any occasion. The best part is that you get to take art with you wherever you go!

You can shop the 1uv gallery online at www.1uv.ca and follow them on Facebook   , Instagram and Twitter. 

Thanks for stopping here, stay tuned!
