Our Values

Where Nature Meets Luxury©  The most beautiful things in the world are found in nature.  Grown in the gliding plains of Portugal, cork is beautiful, durable and sustainable.

Premium materials, highly-functional interior details, our vegan and sustainable cork handbags are a statement you can enjoy for years to come, and will take you effortlessly from home to work to play while contributing to a greener future. 

Our Mission

Provide clients and retail partners an optimal experience in customer service, by offering fashion forward accessories that are ethically manufactured, sustainable, and driven by style, quality, functionality and value.  

Passionately-Designed

Unlike mass produced brands, our pieces are designed in-house, taking into consideration every detail and finishing, to make our accessories a staple in every sophisticated shopper’s wardrobe.  We design timeless, elegant pieces by combining on trend colours and textures, and then each piece is handmade by generations of Portuguese artisans with a time honored commitment to quality and exquisite craftsmanship.

Ethically-Manufactured

Rok Cork understands that ethically-minded shoppers face limited options in the market. Rok Cork accessories are manufactured in small, family-run workshops, where employees are treated with respect, enjoy excellent working conditions, and are paid above fair wage levels. Every step of the manufacturing process is artisanal and uses only high-quality materials.   No PVC/PU derived materials are used in our products, and every step of the supply chain is traceable.  

Sustainability-Focused

Rok Cork has a dual mission of becoming a key factor in the sustainability of cork fields in Portugal (home to inumerous wildlife habitats) and aiding the declining economy there. As well as providing continuous employment for the artisanal families who make our products, Rok Cork does not deplete natural or social resources. In fact, the production techniques used to make our products are beneficial to both the environment and local populations.  Our vendors engage in production methods that minimize negative impact on the environment.  Our materials are ethically sourced and manufactured falling in line with our Ethics and dedication to social responsibility.    A simple approach to creating honest and sustainable employment opportunities to the local artisans.
