It should be obvious by now that we’re obsessed with Black-owned businesses and brands, and love to promote the innovations that spring out of their creative work stations. This month, we spotlight three of such brands whose accessories (eye glasses, earrings and hand bags) boast of high quality.
Utenzi Miller makes some of the chic-est eye wear. Made by optician and visual stylist Utenzi Miller, these fashionable frames come in prescription and non-prescription and are tailored to suit individual needs. At $499, The Grove featured above, is hand polished and made with mazzucchelli acetate from Italy.
These gorgeous, handmade earrings by Ch0ked come in beautiful warm tones of red, orange, green, purple, brown and more. The Elaine earring, inspired by a woman who’s “royal, regal and a little sassy” costs $68 a pair.
This colorful pouch bag by Lagos-based luxury fashion brand, Banke Kuku, is made with Aso Oke, a traditional Nigerian woven cloth created by the Yoruba people.
