Luce – Handmade Leather Shoulder Bag by Gerda Retter

Luce – Handmade Leather Shoulder Bag by Gerda Retter

A bold expression of minimalist design, fine craftsmanship, and timeless form – the Luce Shoulder Bag by Gerda Retter is for women who value style with substance. Designed and handcrafted in Estonia using premium Spanish leather, this bag is more than an accessory: it’s a statement of refined taste and modern elegance.

Minimalist Form, Maximum Impact

Luce strikes a perfect balance between compact shape and practical capacity. Its clean lines and understated silhouette create a modern classic that works for every occasion – whether worn casually across the body, elegantly over the shoulder, or confidently in hand.

The bag measures 17 cm x 17 cm x 9 cm – compact yet spacious enough for daily essentials like your phone, cardholder, lipstick, and keys. An inner zip pocket keeps your valuables secure and organized.

A Leather Statement – Crafted to Last

Made from high-quality Spanish leather, Luce offers a tactile experience that improves with time. This natural material ages beautifully, developing a rich patina that enhances its character. The leather is processed entirely by hand, giving each piece a distinctive texture and an authentic finish.

The smooth magnetic closure allows easy yet secure access to your belongings, adding functional finesse to its elegant form.

Two Straps, One Attitude: Your Style, Your Way

The Luce bag comes with two interchangeable straps that let you define your look:

• A long, narrow strap (adjustable 100–136 cm) for crossbody or classic shoulder styling

• A short, wide strap (adjustable 87–96 cm) for a relaxed, fashion-forward feel or handheld wear

Both straps are crafted with precision to complement the bag’s minimalist architecture, giving you flexibility without compromising on design.

Handcrafted in Estonia – Individuality in Every Stitch

Each Luce bag is handmade in the studio of Gerda Retter in Tartu, Estonia. A designer with an uncompromising eye for detail, Gerda honed her skills at Tartu Higher Art School and furthered her expertise under renowned mentors in Italy and Hungary. Her designs have been recognized internationally – a testament to her dedication to quality and innovation.

Owning a Luce bag means owning a one-of-a-kind piece. Every bag carries the signature of its maker – not mass-produced, but a product of care, individuality, and enduring value.
