The Empress is our modern homage to the timeless bucket bag—where form meets function in effortless harmony. Designed to stand tall when set down, this versatile leather artifact blends beauty with everyday utility.

 

Crafted from premium, sustainable, full grain buffalo leather and secured with an industrial-strength solid brass snap closure, The Empress opens into a spacious, circular interior that gives you full visibility of your essentials—no more digging for your keys.

 

Finished with our signature Maven Convert Handle, it adapts to your present moment with ease. A simple pull of each latigo leather strap adjusts the length to suit your look, while a classic overhand knot holds it all in place. Let the tails sway freely for a modern edge, or tuck them inside for a refined, minimalist finish.

TESTIMONIALS

"I have purchased two Maven bags and I can’t wait for the next one. Both of my Luna backpacks are absolutely beautiful. The craftsmanship, color, and style are unique and vibrant. And to top it all off, Emma has the most amazing customer service. One of my bags fell off the radar with the shipping carrier. When I contacted Emma, she immediately responded and did everything on her end to follow up with the carrier and it arrived two days later. She also stayed in contact with me everyday for an update. Overall, Maven bags are my new addiction. I always look forward to her upcoming collection drops for my new favorite bag. If you’re looking for something unique, well crafted, and beautiful with exceptional customer service, a Maven bag or accessory is the way to go! Oh, and I love that Maven is a small woman owned business. Checks all the boxes for me! 🙌🏾"
