Thank you HOUSE OF SWITZERLAND for this lovely article. 💕

So happy about this lovely article in Forbes Magazine about our founder Tanja Schenker and her sustainable idea to make handbags from apples.

Weil ihr Hund am liebsten Äpfel aß und sie auf der Suche nach nachhaltigen Materialien für die Luxushandtaschen ihres Labels Happy Genie war, entschied sich Gründerin Tanja Schenker, ihre Produkte aus Äpfeln zu produzieren.

Made from apples? 🍏 Yes, it is true. The bags we make are made from apples. To be precise we upcycled the leftover pulp from the juicing industry to create handbags.
