Mitzi Baker, a native of Newport Beach, California, began her creative
career as part of the Vidal Sassoon Academy's core art team. At Sassoon, Mitzi was schooled in the "less is more" philosophy as she explored the utilization of geometric shapes, simplicity, and functional elegance — themes that would become the foundation of her design philosophy.

With a fifth-generation master shoemaker, Mauricio Orzorio, as her mentor, Mitzi next added handcrafted shoe design to her portfolio. When Mitzi extended her leather work into handbags the MITZI BAKER collection was born. Prized for their luxury, style and refined practicality, MITZI BAKER handbags and small leather accessories attracted a devoted following at over a hundred stores world wide, including Neiman Marcus, Takashimaya, and Fred Segal.

Mitzi’s longtime fascination with interior design and her interest in environmentally sensitive materials — coupled with her restless and inventive creative spirit — inspired her to produce a new collection for the home. Artisanal rugs are woven from soy and hemp fibers in subtle natural tones or richly tinted with vegetable dyes. Scented candles are made from one hundred percent organic American grown soy and are infused with a completely natural extracts and exotic essences. Reflecting Mitzi’s attention to the smallest details, all packaging employed in the line is made from recycled papers and leathers.

As sensuous as it is practical, and as Earth-friendly as it is luxurious, MITZI BAKER HOME is in perfect harmony with any environment including the global environment we all share.
