About M2malletier

M2Malletier is a premium handbag label renowned for its elegant, timeless designs and exquisite leathers. Founded in 2012 by Colombian designer Marcela Velez, the brand has earned a cult following for its discreet, modern aesthetic and impeccable artisanal craftsmanship.

Based in New York but drawing on fine Colombian leather traditions, M2Malletier embodies subtle luxury. The brand's most iconic bag is the Amor Fati, a structured top-handle style crafted from supple vitellino leather. Featuring a simple, curvaceous silhouette with minimal gold hardware, the Amor Fati has a sophistication that transcends trends. There is also a scaled-down Mini Amor Fati for a more petite statement.

Other classic M2Malletier styles include the Annabelle clutch and the La Collectionneuse satchel, rendered in decadent materials like ostrich leg and black crocodile. The handbags are made in small Colombian workshops to exacting standards, with careful attention to detail in the leather sourcing, cutting, and stitching. M2Malletier uses high-end tanneries for its leathers and each skin is inspected individually.

With their quiet elegance, craftsmanship, and limited availability, M2Malletier bags have amassed a cult following. Fans love the simplicity of the silhouettes, the discreet logo and branding, and the buttery feel of the leather. While the brand has gained popularity with stylish celebrities like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and fashion editors, M2Malletier remains a bit under the radar. This air of exclusivity only enhances the appeal for collectors, who know that the most covetable designs sell out quickly. Many sell for above retail on the secondary market, and the discontinued styles have become truly rare. For those looking to stand out from the crowd, M2Malletier's modern take on heirloom luxury handbags doesn't get much better.
