About Patricia Nash

Our products are distinguished by our full grain, vegetable tanned leathers, tanned using the bark of a mimosa tree. We use european style craftsmanship including hand burnishing and hand cutting leather to achieve our unique distressed and high/low effects on our custom leathers.

While traveling in Milan years ago, Patricia came upon a periodical shop where she discovered an old map of Italy, with cities and borders that no longer exist today. It took a couple of years but she was finally able to perfect this print on leather and it has now become our Signature Map print that has become a distinctive element of the Patricia Nash brand.

Our iconic floret logo was conceived when Patricia set pen to paper in pursuit of an identifiable mark to represent the brand she had just decided to start. While sipping a glass of wine in Italy, she imagined a grape leaf with imperfect edges and distressing, just like our one-of-a-kind leathers and pieces. Every Patricia Nash bag has an embossed floret logo on it and is adorned with floret hardware.

Our spring wicker and hand-woven straw bags are now a beloved spring staple and customers have come to expect this from Patricia Nash. In all shapes and sizes, trimmed in our beautiful leathers and often adorned with scarves, we spare no details in every single design and silhouette.

Patricia Nash bags has become known for using special techniques to achieve exquisite tooling and textured patterns, making every bag feel truly special and like a work of art.

Details of Patricia's designs are influenced by her time spent visiting exotic locations around the world. Using coins from her travels as inspiration, our coin collections capture memories of times spent abroad. Whether on a handbag, belt, scarf, or jewelry item, coins represent that vintage nod to other cultures of the world.

Patricia Nash's exclusive prints have become well-known with the brand and customers have been known to collect our prints in handbags, scarves, and jewelry. Spring Multi and our original Multi print in the fall are perennial favorites but Patricia is always introducing new prints inspired by vintage garments and prints she finds on her travels.
