* In folklore, a group of ravens is called an 'unkindness' or 'conspiracy' — terms rooted in misconceptions and superstitions of less enlightened times. Today, by embracing these terms as our community names, we playfully challenge and satirize outdated beliefs and the trivial loyalties of modern consumer culture. Joining 'The Conspiracy' at Manufabo® is not just about fashion — it is about making a statement against fast commerce and fleeting trends, while also poking fun at the power of branding in defining group identities. Becoming part of the White Ravens means understanding the past to innovatively redefine the future.

The symbol for the unique: Meet the White Raven.

Forget the baseless tales of ravens as omens of bad luck…

Ravens are amongst the most intelligent animals, the world's biggest songbirds, great parents, loyal, and highly adaptable.

It is often the different and misunderstood, who hold the most strength and beauty.

The O in our logo represents our awe at such beauty; symbolized by the white raven — embodying Manufabo's commitment to embracing the unique and exceptional.

The art to enjoy life.

Nonchalance is about handling life with a gentle touch of humor and grace, in a balance of seriousness without taking everything too seriously.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

The #nonchalant way blends style with effortless elegance. It combines carefree nobility and delicate lightness, ensuring that every interaction is marked by authenticity, naturalness, and charm.

Each Manufabo® Bag embodies these principles, enhancing the charm and individuality of its bearer, encouraging them to not just exist, but truly live.

For the extraordinary.

The angular Manufabo logo and our own font internalize the idea of an extraordinary and interesting person.

The rough (corners and) edges stand for individuality, honesty and authenticity.

Our name, derived from my mother's "Manufaktur Borni", and its individual elements celebrate this authentic artisanal beauty:

MANU — manus (Latin) = hand
ƒA — facere (Latin) = make
BO — beau (French) = beautiful

Crafted in Bad Berleburg. Cherished in every stitch.

Every Manufabo® bag represents a commitment to excellence: limited editions, custom-made with a focus on quality over quantity.

Designed and meticulously handcrafted in Germany, every bag carries the same passion and care that infused our earliest creations (bespoke gifts for close friends).

Handmade under fair conditions, our bags are a testament to sustainable practices that respect both people and the environment.

Consciously crafted with great attention to detail.

From logos hot-stamped in Germany to premium Spanish faux leather and EU-sourced yarns, ribbons, and elastics.

Every detail reflects our commitment to quality and sustainability. Our hardware, including engraved silver D-rings, White Raven hooks, and Manufabo®-M zippers, adds to the unique appeal of each piece.

As a dedicated family-run business, we actively reduce our ecological footprint. By continuosly increasing the share of European components and enhancing sustainable practices, we aim for a fully local (sourcing and) production model.
