10 Nov 2007 ... The other amazing thing about Karina's bags, in addition to their craftsmanship and gorgeous designs, is that they are so inexpensive. ...

I really enjoyed your website. These are awesome bags. They do remind me of the John Romain Handbags and Agnier bags

What an absolutely fabulous collection, i came across your advert tonight in the Derbyshire Times, and have simply got to have one. I love my handbags but these are truly unique - a credit to you.

I came across your website after hearing about your handbags from my friend Claire Brown (of Misofunky fame). She told me about your lovely work after meeting you at the Cluny market. I had a look at your site and think your work is just beautiful!

Karina's bags combine vintage chic with fashionable design. I love that each bag is an exclusive creation, and they're so well-crafted I know I'll be getting years of enjoyment (and compliments!) from mine.

We swooned – yes swooned – when we first clapped our eyes on Karina Hesketh's delectable handbags. She's local, she has her own website and yes, has bags of class.
And they don't just look fantastic either. You want to get your mitts on these beauties, they're just demanding to be caressed

At first I couldn't believe Karina actually makes these bags herself! The quality is amazing and I love all the unique vintage findings that make them a one-off."

Karina Hesketh's leather bags are supple and elegantly designed in soft toffee leather. They are uniquely fashionable and durable, perfect for meetings, travelling and shopping. Karina has a wide range of designs inspired by her interests in
travel, patterns and posters of the world and fascinating family history. The bags draw compliments from from the bus driver to the green grocer and are a stylish accompaniment to any outfit.

Your purses are amazing!

The bags are simply out of this world. The bag I liked best was the one Karina was using as a handbag herself - I mentioned how much i loved it and she offered it to me for £70 - considering they retail for up to £220 in the shops, I snapped her hand off for it! It is literally the bag of my dreams, so I consider it a real bargain! I will post a photo of it at some point, altho it won't capture the fantastic smell of the leather.

I just looked at your website and had the rare experience of being not only able to see and find the information easily but really wanted to see all of the bags you had listed on archive. We would love to have you with us as you fulfil all the criteria for quality, originality, craft input

I'm enjoying the new handbag I bought from you - it's getting lots of admiring comments!

I'm very fond of both my Karina bags - my antique leather work bag is great and is such beautiful leather and holds my laptop perfectly, and my navy bag which was a present is so classic and elegant - I think I will use it for years - It's great having such an individual piece. I also met someone in the pub last night with one of your new bags with the gate clasps
- in tan - I told her it was an antique gate latch and she was super impressed!

I love my clutch bag because it is so unique and has such character. It holds lots but still fits snugly under my arm!!

I have bought 3 of your bags and each one has been a different design. I bought them because I really liked the designs and they were unusual. The leather was really soft and the colours were lovely. I also liked the inner linings of the bags. The linings all were a good contrast to the leather. I hope to see some more of your new designs. Thanks.

Just visited your website! Love it. I can't imagine the bags will stick around for long now you've set the website up. Really liked the clutch bags using the silk handkerchiefs. Clutch's (so I read) are very in this autumn/winter. I really like the cream saddle bags. I think I'll put an order in for one of those when I've got a bit more spare cash. The Japanese leather the gentleman found was beautiful, wasn't it. So annoying that I can't access ebay from work – felt like having a search when I read about that. Also like the small picture second from the right in the panel at the bottom of the pages.  Looks like a great bag just from the detail.
