The Ghostly Gala, the first-ever fundraising gala in Los Angeles for the FSH Society, has scored another coup with the donation of a collection of stylish, exquisitely crafted leather accessories from Anson Calder. At the Ghostly Gala auction, you will have an exclusive opportunity to receive the first bag off of the production line, along with three components of your choice (due Dec 2015).
But there’s more to Anson Calder than meets the eye.
Curtis Calder, the founder of Anson Calder, began designing bags and accessories to meet his physical needs and match his taste. Having FSH muscular dystrophy, he regularly minimizes what he carries. After designing a thin wallet and a few bags that masterfully utilized space, several friends expressed interest in using the products themselves.
Curt quickly realized that his stylish, minimalist products weren’t just for those with physical limitations but that they spoke to the fashion world and met universal needs of a global market. Set to launch October 2015 with two small leather goods, there is more in store for this up-and-coming brand. Because of our mission to create awareness, provide patient information, and work toward a cure, Anson Calder is dedicated to donating a portion of every sale to support the FSH Society!
Check out Anson Calder’s initial product line:
The ⅛ Inch Wallet (above) can easily carry your necessary cards and slip discreetly in your pocket. Made of luxurious French calfskin with fine construction and hand tacks, this wallet will stand the test of time and only grow in beauty. There are three separate compartments and push slots on both sides for quick and easy access to your cards. There is also a variation with a cash slot on one side. Currently available in Black and Cognac.
The Catch-All is crafted from the finest French calfskin and lined with beautiful French nubuck. Its high-quality magnets provide a beautiful form and make it easy to fold flat for travel (travel bag included). It is the perfect addition to any desk, dresser, or table and is ideal for storing items for daily use and keeping them safe. Currently available in Cognac and Black.
Anson Calder Bags are a hybrid of engineered functionality and luxurious style. The patent-pending system ensures efficient use of space by attaching cases, called Components, to the internal walls of the bag. With the Anson Calder system, your bag can change as often as your needs do, whether it’s from workweek to weekend, or over the long term as you switch out the technology you carry.
The internal cases (pictured: iPad case, Macbook case) are meant to function perfectly as stand-alone goods and can also be removed and inserted seamlessly into other Anson Calder bags. Easily transition from your daily work commute to a business trip to a weekend get-away without forgetting any of your essential items. These and other fine leather goods from Anson Calder are currently in production at their factory in Los Angeles.
