Making timeless styles

Canvas & Hyde is a luxury handcrafted leather handbag company, created by Founder and CEO, Lisa Pongrass.
With an emphasis on quality craftsmanship and an urban minimal aesthetic, Canvas & Hyde bags are built to last and have a timeless elegance, in contrast to the trend-driven “it” bags of the moment. Versatile, comfortable and sophisticated, they are the perfect "go anywhere" bags – representative of the busy and international lifestyle you lead.
Canvas & Hyde’s timeless styles are all hand-constructed in Brooklyn, New York and Florence, Italy, by expert local artisans skilled in the tradition of creating beautiful leather bags. The finest leathers and hides from around the world are sourced, and each bag is painstakingly assembled by hand, from the cutting of the leather to the hand painting of the leather edges.
Every aspect of the bags is meticulously designed from only the highest quality materials, from the internal rope of the leather handles to the reinforcement used to enhance the leather base. The hardware is the highest-grade nickel-plated brass and each bag is hand sewn together using premium Gutermann thread. Their goal is to construct bags that are luxuriously elegant but also durable enough to withstand constant use - in other words, a style investment that will stand the test of time as the perfect, efficient lifestyle companion.
