Description

Chelsea Covent Garden — Limited Edition of 10

Created especially for the Chelsea Flower Show 2026, Chelsea Covent Garden is a celebration of British craftsmanship, summer florals and the beauty of owning something truly rare. Based on our much-loved Small London Shopper, the design was developed exclusively for Chelsea and limited to just 10 individually numbered pieces worldwide.

The inspiration began with an exploration of flowers and their forms, with dandelion and allium becoming the defining elements of the collection. Their distinctive round structures and light, airy silhouettes were translated from our original sketches into intricate 3D floral embroidery, creating beautiful texture, movement and depth.

After experimenting with different techniques and partners, we found a small specialist British embroidery company in the heart of London whose craftsmanship allowed us to achieve the delicacy and detail we had envisioned. The embroidery is created before each bag is individually cut, assembled and finished by hand in our London studio.

The collection was created in just three colours: Mint, Powder Pink and Niagara Blue — with only six Mint, three Powder Pink and a single Niagara Blue made. Each bag carries its own individual edition number, hand-created and stitched onto an additional internal pocket, marking its place within the collection.

Inside, each Chelsea Covent Garden is lined in beautiful Liberty organic cotton in the limited-edition Big Smoke print, with a practical phone pocket and card holder finished in soft goat suede.

Compact and wonderfully lightweight, the Small London Shopper is designed to carry your everyday essentials without ever feeling cumbersome. Its considered proportions make it equally suited to workdays, summer outings and occasions, while retaining the elegant silhouette that made this style a Chelsea favourite.

Only 10 Chelsea Covent Garden bags will ever be made — a small piece of Chelsea 2026, designed, embroidered and handcrafted in London.

All 10 bags were pre-ordered during the Chelsea Flower Show 2026 and successfully completed and delivered to their new owners in July 2026, bringing this very special project to a close.

Care

To keep your product looking its best, store in a box or dust bag when you're not using it and avoid water and prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight. We recommend that you don’t leave your item in direct sunlight (this can lead to discolouring and fading) or expose it to wet or damp conditions or high temperatures (this can lead to bubbles or marks appearing). Avoid applying strong detergents, waxes or polishes to your item, which can prevent it from breathing and attract dirt.

Important Note
We carefully select all our materials to ensure the best quality. Any veins, slight scars or creases that may be visible are naturally-occurring and part of the character of the leather. Every leather is individual and over time you may notice creases or irregularities occur. This is part of the natural ageing process.

Craftsmanship

Our Leather

Most Anya Sushko bags are made using full-grain Italian leather, which is soft, subtle, yet also hard wearing. Italian leather is distinguished by its fine quality and unique characteristics, the result of a combination of traditional craftsmanship and time-honoured techniques.

Our Italian leather comes in a large array of colours which means we can accommodate all tastes..


CRAFTSMANSHIP

Handmade in England

Each product is meticulously handcrafted by skilled artisans in England with great attention to detail, using traditional leather making techniques. The products are handmade in the finest Italian full-grain leather, which is beautifully soft and only gets better with age. The raw edges of the leather are finished using a specialist hot iron and after that a few coats of water-resistant dye in dark brown is applied to keep them smooth and polished.

Leathercraft is an intricate and mesmerising process. It can take weeks, even months, to take the product from an initial idea to the final prototype, depending on the complexity of the design and detail involved.



about anya sushko

About the Designer

Anya says: “It is so fulfilling to observe how, from a flat piece of leather, a three-dimensional product appears that is not only beautiful but also practical and useful. Sometimes I look at some of my complex products and can hardly believe I handmade them myself! The amount of work that goes into making bags is incredible".

Born in Riga, Latvia, when it was still part of the USSR, Anya’s childhood was marked by the typical Soviet challenges: no access to foreign goods and limited exposure to Western culture. Anya compensated for this, like a lot of Russians, by involving herself vigorously in classical Russian arts such as ballet, gymnastics, piano-playing and fine art. From an early age, with the encouragement of her mother, Anya also learnt to make herself beautiful clothes and accessories.

Her creative flair led her to study architecture and then interior design in Riga.  Later, she was talent-spotted by the Central Saint Martins’s College of Art and Design in London, and after graduating from there she undertook a degree in Product Design Development for Leather Accessories at the London College of Fashion
