Introducing La Marqq by TrooRa

TrooRa LaMarqq leather handbag with a splash of color
TrooRa LaMarqq, brainchild of TrooRa founder Trystanne Cunningham, releases its first product this month.
A leather handbag with a splash of color and leather from designer Basil Racuk, who is being featured in TrooRa’s Color Issue.
The bag’s Vachetta leather is vegetable-tanned to last longer. It was produced using only natural, non-toxic chemicals and preserves the characteristic colors and scent associated with fine leather. Produced in the Italian region of Tuscany, Vachetta leather’s high fat content allows for a buttery soft finish and develops a distinctive patina over time. Only about ten percent of modern leather is still vegetable-tanned, and this process reflects centuries’ worth of craft.
The bag will contain swag from brands featured in the Color issue, including Palo Santo incense from Magnolia Wellness and candles made from recycled wine bottles. Each future issue of TrooRa will have an accompanying leather swag bag featuring sample products and a different work of art commissioned from an artist featured in that issue. The quality Vachetta leather handbag will be gifted to VIP guests at TrooRa’s The Color Issue Summer ’22 Launch Event Party on July 28th at San Francisco’s Dirty Habit.
Launching the TrooRa La Marqq line has been a dream of Cunningham’s for quite some time, and she looks forward to diversifying into other products. Collaborating with designer Basil Racuk has been a fun project. Racuk says working with Cunningham and TrooRa on these bags is a special and unique project. “It’s been exciting to finalize the design and stitching process!”
“It’s all about building partnerships,” Cunningham says. “The swag bags allow our featured brands to sample their products to our treasured audience and loyal supporters.”
Dirty Habit, where we will have the launch event party for TrooRa’s Color Issue Summer ’22, is the elegant cocktail lounge for San Francisco’s Hotel Zelos, part of a chain of hotels featured in past issues of TrooRa, who expressed interest in future joint projects as well.
