about Esperanza

The name for Indie designer Ana Karen accessories line Esperanza was inspired in part by her grandmother, Esperanza, whos buttons and laces Ana collected as a child, and in part by the meaning of the word Esperanza: hope. Ana’s ambitions for the company stem from her desire to give back to the people of her native country, Guatemala.

Even thought the production first started out in New York , all production of Esperanza accessories is kept local in order to provide jobs to Guatemalan communities in which they also are been treated fairly for their time and work. Our product is hand made and produced in limited quantities with lots of ♥
