About Cuarta

Cuarta, a brand born from a heartfelt journey back to my homeland, Peru. As I revisited the town of my upbringing, I couldn't ignore the stark contrast between culture. Yet, amidst this realization, my love and admiration for my roots remained unwavering, fueling a desire to make a meaningful difference. Thus, Cuarta emerged as more than just a brand-- it's an homage to Cuarta Zona, the place that shaped me. Our collection holds a special place in our hearts-- it's what sparked our journey. While wandering through the bustling markets of Peru, I encountered a talented artisan who crafted the most exquisite handbags, each woven by hand with precision and care. Inspired by her dedication, I knew her creations had to be the cornerstone of our debut collection, Every bag, a testament to her creativity and craftsmanship, reflects the essence of her work and passion. We're committed to not only providing fair wages but also giving back to the communities that inspire us. As you explore these pieces, you'll notice they bear the names of Peruvian cities, landmarks, and creations-- a tribute to the rich culture and heritage of South America. Our hope is that you not only adore this collection but also develop a deep appreciation for the vibrancy and ingenuity of the people who make it all possible.Read their story
