Our Story

Our journey began with a simple yet compelling question: What does today’s professional need to elevate their journey of success? The answer was clear—they seek a product that flawlessly combines premium materials, exceptional craftsmanship, a rich heritage, and modern design, all at a price that feels just right.

KARTHADA was born to answer this question, blending the timeless heritage of Carthage with the modern sophistication of Luxembourg to create exceptional leather goods. Inspired by Carthage, founded in 814 B.C. by Queen Elissa (Dido) and renowned for its ingenuity and craftsmanship, we honor a legacy rooted in the myth of the cowhide—a symbol of resourcefulness that established Carthage as a center of excellence in trade and artisanal skills. Today, Tunisia continues this tradition, supplying Europe’s luxury brands with centuries of expertise in leather craftsmanship. Complementing this heritage is Luxembourg, a nation celebrated for its innovation, modern elegance, and exceptional quality standards. As one of the world’s most attractive countries for business and professional opportunities, Luxembourg inspires our vision to meet the needs of discerning professionals. Its progressive values, precision, and dedication to excellence shape every KARTHADA design, ensuring each piece reflects a balance of tradition and forward-thinking sophistication.
