Callista Crafts Brand

Co-founded by Eleni Konstantinidou and Celia Cigalou in Athens in 2013, Callista Crafts is now a global luxury fine leather goods brand that employs 25 highly skilled craftswomen in their workshop north of Athens. Every piece of leather respectfully handled cut and crafted and hand-stitched in the Athens headquarters. With relentless precision, a piercing needle is worked in and out of the supple leather corners, to achieve each signature stitch now synonymous to Callista Crafts. The classic Tote is handmade over three hours using 950 stitches and 356 patented knots. The signature woven top handle of the iconic Tote is made of 12m of leather cord hand-knotted all over its length. These handcrafted details are Callista’s blueprint. It is with relentless precision and immaculate finesse that each bag created, in an ethical and sustainable manner.
