byhumanhand began as a small independent label founded in Berlin, rooted in upcycling and the belief that clothing and objects can carry a second life. From the beginning, the focus has been on reworking existing materials into limited, thoughtfully designed garments and jewellery—each piece shaped by experimentation rather than repetition.

Today, byhumanhand is based in Portugal. Life by the ocean, the slower rhythms of the country, and ongoing work in animal welfare deeply influence both the aesthetic and the values behind the label.
Nature, reuse, and responsibility are not concepts, but lived realities.

Every byhumanhand piece is a one-of-a-kind or part of a very limited series. Designs emerge from reworking, adapting, and re-imagining materials through innovative approaches rather than mass production. No two pieces are ever exactly the same.

byhumanhand stands for independent creation, conscious use of resources, and objects made with intention—by people, not machines.
