On a recent trip to Spain, I had the pleasure of meeting Fernando Santillan, a highly respected leather artisan from Mexico whose work immediately stood out for its exceptional quality and craftsmanship. After receiving several samples, it became clear that his handbags were truly extraordinary. Every single piece is handcrafted exclusively by Fernando himself in Mexico—never mass-produced, never duplicated. Each bag takes approximately 26 hours to create from start to finish, making every design completely one of a kind. Once completed, the bags are sent directly to us, ensuring their authenticity and exclusivity.

We are honored to offer these luxury leather handbags at Anda Organic Boutique Spa and are proud to be the only retail outlet in the country to carry Fernando’s work. While they are loved for being accessible and affordable, they are intentionally not easily found elsewhere. When you purchase one of these bags, you are not simply buying an accessory—you are investing in the talent, dedication, and livelihood of a hardworking artisan designer.
