Accessories brand launched in 2019 by the native Sicilian Gianna Caravello and for women designed for a better and conscious elegance.
Gianna Caravello grew up in Southern Italy, surrounded by colorful motifs and creative traditions, where the notion of luxury means things that are beautifully crafted, practical, and made to last

MODHER gift boxes are made with FSC certified paper and GMO-free, containing 40% post-consumer recycled waste and 15% organic residues from agro-industrial waste. The brand tags are made from 100% recycled T-shirt offcuts, material that normally gets thrown away, and also they are tree-free.  The branded dust bag is made from Cotton and organic cotton

MODHER is partnered with EcoCart to offset the entire carbon emission associated with their products, from its production to the final delivery to our customer.  Through this program, they support the growth and maintenance of a California forest (The Garcia River Forest)

MODHER was established on the fundamentals of ethical labor and sustainable practices. They work within Europe, where child labor is explicitly banned in the European Union under the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union 2000. They regularly audit suppliers to ensure that the employees are provided with proper work conditions, hygiene, and safety, and prohibiting any form of child labour, forced labour, or illegal employment. All their materials, leather, metal accessories, packaging are sourced locally, partnering with local and expert artisans.  The B Impact Assessment (From B Corp) tool allowed them to investigate each aspect of the business in-depth. They decided to leverage this evaluating tool to gather important information from the suppliers and use this information to define key metrics and guiding principles.

The mission at MODHER is to keep the environmental impact as low as possible and to design handbags that are long-lasting — in both durability and style. Since their inception in 2019 they have engaged with B Corporation and in March 2021, MODHER became officially a B Corp. At MODHER, they meticulously craft small-batch leather and alternative-leather products. As a Certified B Corporation, they deeply consider the environmental and social impact of every choice they make and every material they use

MODHER is a small business with 2 employees and some external collaborators

MODHER manufactures their handbags in Tuscany, Florence. They have been working with 4 different manufacturers, all of them in the same area.  Their leather is sourced in the Santa Croce sull’Arno area because the circular production methods are strictly monitored to ensure a low impact on the environment. They decided to locate the production in Italy (Europe) because of the high standard of quality, experience, and regulations that guarantees safety for employers, proper work conditions,  and hygiene

MODHER promotes craftsmanship as the foundation of their ethical and sustainable business. All of their products and materials are crafted by skilled artisans. They work only with small family-owned artisans located in Tuscany, Italy along with a short miles range. They say that they are proud to work with small family-owned factories, from leather productions to the craft of our eco-friendly packages to the handcrafting of our handbags. For this means supporting a small and local community, in the founder's native country

They created their collections based on the concept of timelessness and durability. All designs are classic and not about trends and fashion. Their pieces are cross-seasons and not related to trends or fashion calendars. They aim to promote conscious consumerism, buy timeless, versatile, and long lasting pieces

MODHER's designs are not about trends and fashion, but about defining a meaningful lifestyle. Their pieces are cross-seasons and not related to trends or fashion calendars. They want to give consumers something to identify with and provide joy through positivity, all while giving them the chic pieces they crave
