VALDES DESIGNS

Guided by a deep  reverence for heritage and the enduring legacy of craft, Valdes Designs was created by sisters Bea and Marga Valdes in 2005.

It is a creative atelier anchored on the belief that true luxury is found in the quiet elegance of craftsmanship .

Each handmade piece tells a story, intricately woven through beadwork, embroidery, and embellishment - a reflection of honoured techniques brought to life by skilled hands.
From crystal-encrusted handbags to sculptural neckpieces, art objects, luxury interiors and large scale artwork, their installations and modern day heirlooms transcend seasons and trends.

Their pieces have been featured in publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, The New York Times, W, Newsweek, The Financial Times’ How to Spend It, and Design Anthology - cementing their presence in the fields of accessory design, contemporary fashion and art.
Their Manila-based workshop is a space where materials are reimagined, imperfections embraced, and timeless designs are crafted with intention. It is a tribute to slow fashion and lifestyle, as well as a commitment to circularity that celebrates the talent and generosity of their Filipino culture and the boundless possibilities of tactile exploration.
