Medalla Wristlet Clutch
Handmade by survivor artisans from New Hope Girls in the Dominican Republic to provide sanctuary, education, and employment for survivors of exploitation.
Streamline your essentials with the Medalla Wristlet Clutch. Designed with two zippered pockets, a metal clasp closure, and a comfortable wristlet strap, this clutch blends functionality with modern style. It opens flat to hold larger items like your phone, while the smaller pocket keeps cards and valuables safe. The hand-stamped leather logo adds a finishing touch to this unique, artisan-made accessory.
Each Medalla Wristlet Clutch is handcrafted in the Dominican Republic by artisans of New Hope Girls, a Shared Trade partner. This social enterprise provides dignified work, leadership development, and economic empowerment for women overcoming adversity. Every bag carries a hang tag signed by its maker, connecting you directly to the woman who created it. Made from upcycled fabric, each clutch tells a story of sustainability, transformation, and hope.
