helade & sola

Helade & Sola is a Nigerian design atelier rooted in the beauty of form, process, and cultural memory, bringing together the disciplines of craftsmanship, textile innovation, and cultural storytelling. Known for its sculptural silhouettes and expressive surfaces, the brand’s work blends high craft with textile expression, producing one-of-a-kind bags and accessories that celebrate structure, symbolism, and material storytelling. Our handbags and fashion accessories are bold in form and rich in meaning. At the core of its collections is Roidery™—a distinctive technique that fuses embroidery, embellishment, and layered patterning on leather and fabric. Each piece is carefully composed, with many designs made only once, while others may appear in limited variations depending on material availability. Every piece is a tactile canvas: stitched, layered, and built with a reverence for artistry. Many designs draw from African and global motifs, interpreted through colour, contrast, and sculptural silhouette. From embellished clutches to embroidered travel bags, Helade & Sola’s work honours process and precision, drawing from both visual cultural traditions and modern design codes. Our brand speaks to collectors who value individuality, heritage, and visual power. The result is a series of collectible works that feel deeply personal, —intended for those who appreciate beauty, intention, and craft. This is more than style. It’s design with memory stitched in.
