As opposed to flat-woven kilims, hand-knotted oriental carpets are known for their “pile,” the small, raised fibers that give it a fuzzy texture and a soft, velvety hand. That quality has made oriental carpets more difficult to work with in the past, but our clever cobblers have found a way to gently shave down the pile while preserving its lush feel and appearance.

Each of our Carpet pieces is handmade from vintage, one-of-a-kind Turkish carpets, which means that no two will ever be alike. We photograph each item individually, so what you see on the product page is exactly what you'll receive.

Our products are completely handmade from start to finish by master artisans and weavers, resulting in the highest quality finished product.

Our Kilim Pocketbook features an adjustable leather strap, so that you can sport your Pocketbook hands-free.

Our Pocketbook includes a magnetic closure, and two interior pockets- one of which is zipped.

FAQs

Since our products are made from vintage textiles, each pair we make is completely unique! Even two pairs cut from the same carpet can look very different depending on placement of the pattern, borders vs. interior, etc.

The carpets themselves are vintage, generally with some sort of damage that makes them no longer suitable for use in a home. We repurpose the intact parts as shoes and accessories.

Yes! We photograph each one-of-a-kind product individually, so the two main images at the very top of the page are exactly what you'll receive. Any additional images and videos are other examples of the same style, just to show you what it looks like in action.

Beautiful bag but not for daytime use

"This is a beautiful, finely crafted bag for casual weekend evening use or times when you don't need to bring everything--all the contents of your wallet, your hairbrush, your makeup bag, your inhaler, and your sunglasses--with you. I love Artemis Design products, and also own a pair of the women's slippers and the smoking shoes. They fit comfortably on me right out of the boxes."

Seem to be in my "blue period!"

"The blue of this bag grabbed my attention as soon as I saw it. And I love the pocketbook style and size. Easy to wear. Holds enough but not too much if you know what I mean. Let's just say this is not my first one. Happy . . . again!"
