Fabric first. Always.
Cloth & Stone is where rare textiles become lasting handbags, one carefully considered piece at a time.
Textiles with a past, bags with a future.
We look for fabric with depth, texture, and a sense of discovery. Estate sales, auctions, thrift shops, and carefully chosen finds lead us to textiles that are vintage, discontinued, or simply impossible to find again.
That is why many designs appear only once, or in a very small run. The fabric decides what the bag becomes.
From our Akron, Ohio studio
Beauty that earns its place in everyday life.
Each handbag is cut and sewn with an eye for structure, thoughtful interiors, and the small details that make a favorite bag feel right from the first carry.
