  • Proper care for your handbag: This Carlota handbag is made with high-quality materials, and therefore should be treated with care, protecting it against the elements. Due to the delicate nature of the materials, daily use can cause scratches and scuff marks on the surface, so we recommend you treat it gently. The leather in our handbags is submitted to an important natural dye process, and the suede lining is pigmented with natural anilines, so we recommend that you be careful with any light-color items that might come into contact with it. On textile surfaces, carefully clean the soiled areas using water and soft detergents. To keep your leather products in optimum shape, clean with a soft dry cloth, or, if necessary, have them professionally cleaned.

The flamingo, with its statuesque presence and ethereal pink plumage, stands as one of nature's most magnificent creations, captivating all who behold it. Emerging from the picturesque landscapes of Yucatán, Mexico, these regal birds transform the shores and lagoons into vibrant canvases, painting the surroundings with hues of coral and rose, and weaving an enchanting tapestry of color that mesmerizes onlookers.

Throughout history, flamingos have commanded reverence for their unparalleled elegance, unwavering resilience, and exuberant vitality. In the tapestry of Mexica mythology, they are revered not merely as creatures of beauty, but as profound symbols of love, passion, and renewal. Legend has it that their presence heralds not just the dawn of a new day, but also serves as a beacon of hope and healing in times of adversity.

Beyond their physical allure, the true magic of flamingos lies in their mystical ability to perceive the splendor of life even in its darkest moments. Like guardians of light, they stand tall amidst the shadows, their graceful silhouettes illuminated by the glow of sunset, infusing the world with a sense of wonder and possibility. In their delicate movements and serene demeanor, they embody the eternal dance between light and darkness, reminding us of the enduring power of resilience and the boundless beauty of the natural world.

CARLOTA was founded by brother and sister, Gerardo and Daniela. Their story begins with their grandmother, Carlota Camacho Hall—a recognized painter in the 1800s whose artistic spirit now lives on in the heart of their brand. Carlota's passion for art and her deep connection to the vibrant culture of Mexico became the guiding light for CARLOTA. As descendants, Daniela and Gerardo carry forward her legacy not only in name but in the craftsmanship that defines each of their leather bags.

CARLOTA weaves the threads of family heritage, artistic inspiration, and Mexican tradition into every stitch of their finely crafted leather bags. Their designs are a canvas with the colors and patterns of Mexico's rich tapestry. The landscapes, traditions, and folklore inspire every detail of their leather bags. 

As you explore their collection, you're not just purchasing a bag; you're becoming a part of the Carlota journey. Every piece is not just an accessory but a work of art. Join us in celebrating family, art, and the cultural richness of Mexico with each carefully crafted leather creation.
