ABOUT
RESPONSIBLE STATEMENT PIECES
Rorin specializes in bespoke luxury handbags and art that are responsibly sourced and ethically produced statement pieces.
Each collection is sparked from our passion for repurposing materials to create unexpected textural and color contrasts. Rorin is driven to design unique accessories that elevate your everyday style while giving you the peace of mind that our collections reflect the highest quality and craftsmanship while staying committed to responsible production and sourcing practices.
All Rorin pieces are designed, developed and handcrafted in our studio by founder and designer, Erin Tufts Cartier.
We also work closely with our production partner in Kenya to produce small batch collections in effort to create an additional product at an accessible price point while supporting a fellow female owned business. You can follow Anchor Leather Africa on Instagram to see her incredible team work!
The name Rorin comes from the combination of founder and designer Erin’s name and that of her husband, Rorie. Navigating life’s peaks and valleys together over the years, Erin and Rorie have always worked as a team to overcome personal and professional obstacles with a strong sense of adventure and optimism. Rorin pays homage to their strong bond and the creativity and joy it ignites both in and out of the design studio.
Erin Tufts Cartier is the founder and designer designer of Rorin. Originally from New Orleans, Louisiana and a graduate of Louisiana State University’s Textiles, Apparel, and Merchandising program, Erin envisioned a brand that would foster her passion for designing unique accessories rooted in sustainable processes. Her creative vision has long been interwoven with a desire to integrate a resourceful approach in how she discovers and repurposes unique materials. With over 10 years of experience working with high-end accessories brands such as Safilo, KREWE and most recently at Texas-based design house Keri Kropp, Erin hopes to infuse her fashion retail know-how into developing Rorin’s collections
