Helade & Sola is a Lagos-based design brand with three distinct pillars: HS Atelier (bags, accessories, and ready-to-wear), Foundation Botanics (plant-based skincare and body care), and Health Forever (wellness and herbal health). Each arm reflects our shared values — intentional design, cultural depth, and thoughtful production. Our bags are made in small quantities, often as one-of-a-kind expressions. Our skincare is grounded in botanical science and rooted in nature. Our wellness offerings reflect our ongoing belief in everyday rituals that nourish and support. We do not follow seasons. We do not take custom orders. What is offered is what has been made. Our approach across all categories is the same: detail over noise, process over haste.
Handcrafted bags, Small leather Goods, and Clothing.
Botanical Skincare and Body care.
Wellness Products and Natural Remedies.
Each arm reflects the same values: a respect for material, an intentional design process, and a commitment to products that endure.
In the ATELIER, we develop small collections of leather bags and accessories — often one-of-a-kind, always considered. Many pieces feature Roidery™ embroidery, our signature hand-applied technique developed from West African needlework traditions. We do not take custom orders, and we do not work in seasonal cycles. What is available is what has been made.
FOUNDATION BOTANICS reflects the same approach, with formulations grounded in science and rooted in the power of plant-based ingredients. Our skincare and body care lines are created for long-term skin health, with no trend-chasing or over-claiming.
HEALTH FOREVER continues our quiet philosophy in the realm of wellness — providing herbal remedies and natural support systems rooted in time-tested local knowledge
At the heart of Helade & Sola Bags is a deep respect for form and process. From the bold geometry of the H&S icon to the intricate motifs of the Roidery™ series, every design is intentional. Bags are often one-of-a-kind or produced in extremely limited numbers, making each one a collectible expression of design.
The brand’s signature lies in how it balances boldness with restraint: dramatic embroidery meets minimalist hardware; vibrant brocades are framed by clean leather lines; handcrafted detailing elevates everyday structure.
Whether it’s the compact elegance of the Petite-Midi clutch or the sweeping silhouette of a Celvane shoulder bag, the result is always distinct. Helade & Sola pieces are made to be seen, used, and remembered. They evoke personal ritual, visual culture, and a sense of timeless now.
This is not fast fashion. This is form, memory, and identity — stitched into leather, thread, and thoughtful design.
