Believe in Yourself – Half-Eaten Apple Leather Handbag

by Julianne Marie Brincat

Part of the Believe in Yourself collection by Julianne Marie Brincat, this distinctive round-shaped leather handbag is a symbolic reflection on mental health, resilience, and emotional growth.

The half-eaten apple represents the struggles many people face throughout life — grief, social pressure, family difficulties, health challenges, jealousy, greed, and other experiences that slowly wear us down from within. Despite these hardships, the design conveys a powerful message of perseverance and hope: we should never give up, even during our most difficult moments.

This handbag forms part of a series of three symbolic apple designs:

The full apple represents moments of happiness, fulfilment, and connection.
The half-eaten apple reflects emotional struggles and personal challenges.
The fully eaten apple symbolises deep emotional decline, while the remaining seeds represent resilience, renewal, and the possibility of growth and healing.

Crafted from premium full-grain leather, this artistic statement piece combines meaning, craftsmanship, and contemporary style.
