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.
