Frequently Asked Questions
Our plant-based materials are buttery soft with a refined grain that rivals traditional leather. They're water-resistant, scratch-resistant, and have passed numerous flex tests without cracking. Most customers tell us they prefer the feel — and the materials develop a beautiful character over time.

Inspired by the faceted geometry of a cut gemstone, the Gemma was designed for the woman who wants one bag that does everything. The structured silhouette shifts effortlessly from handbag to crossbody with its removable strap, while the angular form catches light like the stone it's named after.
Available in two materials. Bamboo Fibre: Exterior crafted from USDA-certified Bio-based Bamboo Fibre — soft to the touch, remarkably durable, and as luxurious as plant-based leather gets. Recycled PU Leather: Exterior crafted from GRS-certified premium recycled plastic bottles — buttery soft with a refined grain that rivals traditional leather. The interior mirrors the exterior in the same certified material for a seamless finish. Both options are finished with our signature recycled and recyclable zinc alloy hardware, leaving you with a premium luxury bag.
USDA Biobased GRS Certified PETA Approved RCS Certified
Each one of our products deserves TLC. Find out how you can give your bag TLC here.

Its a Gem!

While walking through Mirdif City Centre Mall, I had the pleasure of meeting Malou from Veganologie. I was casually looking for a bag when she approached me with a friendly smile and a welcoming attitude. Malou was incredibly accommodating and well-informed about the Veganologie products. She took the time to explain the unique features of the bags, their sustainability, and the brand’s mission. Her passion for what she does truly shone through. I ended up finding the perfect bag—and I have Malou to thank for that. Veganologie is a gem of a brand, and with staff like Malou, the experience becomes even more special. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Color and Simple Style

I love the bag! The grey is so subtle and beautiful, as is the style. The quality of the bag is lovely too. I'm vegan myself, so finding a brand that's completely vegan is great!

Beautiful Peice

I love the peice but is on the smaller side for me since I'm 180cm tall. Could make a slightly bigger version?
