- Evening: Carried in the hand, the Black finish pairs cleanly with a column dress and sharp suiting.
- Tonal styling: Match the Black to something else in the outfit, and wear it as a neutral. The clean shape restyles easily and lasts for years.

About Strathberry
Strathberry is a Scottish Leather Goods label based in Edinburgh, Scotland, the Edinburgh house founded in 2011 by Guy and Leeanne Hundleby. It is known for the polished metal bar closure and a clean, minimal East West silhouette. We stock Strathberry at Coveti for everyday carry, work, and gifting, because the bags hold their value and wear well over time.
Guy and Leeanne Hundleby founded the house in 2011 and relaunched it in 2015 with the pared-back identity it carries today. The signature is the polished metal bar across the front, a clasp Strathberry designed in-house, set against clean East West proportions. Each bag is designed in Scotland and handcrafted in Spain from fine European leather. The brand reached a global audience in December 2017, when Meghan Markle carried the Midi Tote at her first official engagement in Nottingham and it sold out within hours. She chose the East West Mini in Bottle Green for her Edinburgh visit two months later. Strathberry now runs boutiques in Edinburgh, London, and Shanghai. Shoppers comparing structured leather bags at this price regularly weigh it against DeMellier and Polène.
“The Strathberry Sway in Black is one I keep recommending. The bar closure makes it instantly recognisable, and the grain calf leather feels expensive in the hand.”
Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Coveti
