FREYA

For many of us, some of our happiest childhood memories were spent with our grandmothers, dressing up and trying on their jewelry. It was with this in mind that the Freya was created. Our newest handbag was designed with a unique round shape, evoking the elegance and charm of a jewellery box. As Maya Angelou beautifully wrote, "I keep my heart in the jewelry box of my grandmother's hands," a reminder of how these small moments hold immense love and memories. We fondly recall their precious jewelry boxes, which held not just beautiful pieces, but the stories, love, and memories of those special moments spent together.

Every time you reach inside the Feya, you’re not just grabbing an item; you’re touching a piece of your own history, perhaps it’s a lipstick from a special night out, a keychain from a far-off adventure, or a handwritten note that brings a smile to your face. With it’s timeless design and meticulous craftsmanship, the Freya becomes a trusted companion, safeguarding not just the items you carry, but the memories and emotions they’re tied to.

The Freya is constructed with a top flip closure which is secure and easy to use. This leaves the front of the bag untouched in a way that accentuates the beautiful curves. The shape isn’t only beautiful on the eye but designed in a way that makes this bag surprisingly lightweight. The Freya can both be a dainty accessory held in your hand on a night out or a reliable companion by your side supporting you on your journey.

Having completed this design in 2023 we were extremely happy with the results. We used the samples and received lots of amazing feedback but we felt we could do more, so we decided to push ourselves and create a bespoke strap. We felt that this bag deserved to be special, to be given our complete love and attention, just as our Grandmothers had shown us.

The asymmetrical chain strap is a first for us at Beara Beara. It reflects the beautifully imperfect journey of life, where every twist and turn creates a narrative as unique as the bag itself. This unique element not only adds a unique highlight to the bag, it’s a beautiful reminder that what we carry with us every day - both in our bags and in our hearts - helps to shape the narrative of our lives.
