UNNUR
The Icelandic Unnur Fridriksdottir, founded the company UNNURWEAR, in 2006, making high quality handbags, accessories and clothing for fashion forward women all over the world.
Unnur’s specialty is using sea-leather in her handbags...yes FISH! It is very fitting as the name UNNUR means in Icelandic "the waves of the ocean".
In using sea-leather UNNURWEAR is contributing to sustainable fashion, and not endangering any species. There is nothing fishy about that!
The sea-leather smells like regular leather, and the more it’s worn - the better it looks.
UNNURWEAR is about global consciousness of culture, nature and comfort. After all, we are just natural.
