Old World Bags

We believe that every album deserves a case or cover that is just as special as the album itself while also protecting it for many years. Our search for an eco-friendly yet durable album bag led us to the discovery of something amazing. Old World Bags, a small company owned by Marsha Meeker of Camarillo, California, has agreed to make custom album bags exclusively for Wild Magnolia Design. Each bag is completely handmade from your choice of reclaimed leather or reclaimed linen recycled from local thrift stores. Old World Bags does not make a bag until your album has been finished, ensuring a perfect fit and a look matched to the look and feel of that particular album. Old World Bag’s products are unique, custom, and beautiful.

From Marsha Meeker on Old World Bags:

“Our culture pushes us to ever-changing clothing styles. Yesteryear’s hottest styles are continually discarded for the new. Visiting the thrift stores, one sees rich-colored, supple leathers, whipstitchery over pebbled leather, and classic linen with tuck-stitched accents. These are treasures of the past.

Old World Bags’ goal is to take these past treasures and create new ones that will last for generations.”
