About BENT&BREE
Founded in 2016, BENT&BREE is an earth-friendly and sustainable brand of vegan bags and accessories handcrafted from cork, one of the most sustainable natural materials in the world. Collections are revelations of feedback, focus groups, trend analysis and inspirational trips translated into designs that reveal comfort, function and style. All collections are handcrafted in Portugal, the largest producer of cork and home to highly skilled workers for this matter.
BENT&BREE is a brand inspired by love, nature and imagination. One of the company’s deepest core values is our respect for the environment and contributing to the preservation of it. Cork was chosen because it is one of the most versatile and sustainable materials in the world. Tree job leads have been useful to the company. Extracted from the bark of the tree, it is the only tree whose bark regenerates itself after each harvest. Cork is exceptionally durable, lightweight, water-resistant and easy clean.
