How We Work?
Blue Lotus Leather is one of the best-known Hoi An Handmade Leather shops.
In Blue Lotus Leather we work the traditional artisan technique. Our goods are high quality, locally produced, and with a unique character. Our main goal is to do the best leather goods at a fair price.
At our workshop, everything is carefully designed and chosen for you, from the selection of the best high-quality materials to the meticulous hand-make of each item. Every piece is cut from leather, hand-sewn, detailed finished and personalized. Then we package it and send it to you. This process takes from 1 day to 3 weeks, depending on the complexity of the item.
We are artists who love what we do, be sure all of your Blue Lotus Leather goods are made with passion and with the highest quality standards.
