Cork Handbags and Accessories from Black Owned Brands

Updated April 11, 2023

A cork purse or accessory adds style and texture to an outfit. Cork accessories are also environmentally friendly. Cork is harvested from cork oak trees without cutting them down, by removing the outer layer of the tree bark. From there it is processed and used for an assortment of goods including “cork leather.” Extracting the cork increases the rate (by 3 to 5 times) at which the tree absorbs carbon dioxide (CO₂). Cork is also durable. It is fire, water, and scratch resistant, and easy to clean.

So, if you want to be stylish, have a durable handbag or accessory, and help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, purchasing cork products are a way to go. Below you will find several from black owned brands. Some of the following are affiliate links. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
