Product & Craftsmanship

Are your products made from genuine leather?

Yes, all of our pieces are made from genuine leather. Because it’s real leather, each item has its own natural texture and character, making every piece one of a kind.

Why does my leather look slightly different from the photos?

Because it’s real leather, each piece has natural variations in colour, texture, and finish. These slight differences are completely normal and part of what makes your piece unique.

Yes. Ocea Design offers a 12-month warranty on hardware and zips for manufacturing faults. This does not cover general wear and tear, accidental damage, misuse, or natural variations in the leather. If you experience an issue, please contact us at hello@oceadesign.com.au with your order number and photos, and we’ll be happy to assist.

How do I care for my leather wallet or bag?

Keep your leather piece away from excessive water and direct heat, and store it in a cool, dry place. If needed, you can use a leather conditioner to keep it soft and looking its best over time.

Yes. Ocea Design offers a 12-month warranty on hardware and zips for manufacturing faults. This does not cover general wear and tear, accidental damage, misuse, or natural variations in the leather.

Our Brand

Who is behind Ocea Design?

Hi, I’m Kel, the founder and creative behind Ocea Design.

I’m a mum of three boys, and after spending so many years raising them and putting so much of myself into family life, I wanted to create something of my own too.

Ocea Design grew from my love of beautiful leather, practical design and pieces that feel a little different from everything else out there. I wanted to create wallets and bags that are not only beautiful, but genuinely useful for everyday life.

Each piece is handcrafted from genuine leather and designed to age beautifully, becoming more unique with time.

Ocea Design has become something I’m incredibly proud of, and I love that my boys get to see me building something from the ground up.

Where are your products made?

Our products are made in Indonesia, in partnership with a small, family-run workshop known for its craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Each piece is thoughtfully produced using ethically sourced materials, with a focus on quality, longevity, and responsible production.

By choosing Ocea Design, you are supporting skilled artisans and a family business that shares our values of care, integrity, and timeless design.

Do you work with sustainable materials?

We are committed to making thoughtful choices wherever possible. Our products are crafted using high-quality leather sourced through responsible suppliers, with a focus on durability and longevity.

By creating timeless pieces designed to be worn and loved for years, we aim to reduce unnecessary consumption and support a more considered approach to fashion.
