Maruca

The fiber of Maruca's philosophy…
Maruca Design embraces the principles of the Arts & Crafts Movement in America (1860-1910). This was movement that invigorated and emphasized the value placed on traditional and decorative craftsmanship using simple forms. The movement stood in opposition to industrial manufacturing and sought to promote the moral, social, and economic health of the nation.

At Maruca, they believe that creating small production runs of their bags using a cottage industry creates a consciousness that humanizes the work and makes for a more “harmonious society”. The result is that they can tout a product that is unique, well made and moves from heart to hand. As an American-based company, Maruca seeks to balance resourcefulness and creativity and remain rooted in the principles of this philosophy.
