🧵 The handle
The MAF Accessories Metal Arch Handles are original metal accessories designed for those who want to add a professional touch to their handmade creations. With their elegant and recognizable arch shape, these handles transform a simple crochet bag or fabric pochette into an accessory with a unique character. The rigid metal structure ensures stability and durability, while the gold and silver finishes allow you to coordinate the handle with the style of the bag and other metal accessories.
Each pack includes 2 complete handles, ready to be mounted via the attachment ring. The 16x11cm dimensions offer a comfortable grip and sufficient opening for the hand, making these handles ideal for handbags, elegant pochettes, and evening clutches. The 0.5mm thickness ensures lightness without compromising the sturdiness of the structure.
🧬 Material and finish: why metal makes the difference
Metal is the material of choice for handles that need to last over time and maintain their shape even after heavy use. Unlike plastic or resin handles, metal does not deform, does not splinter easily, and offers a stable and secure grip. The shiny gold or silver finish gives a professional and polished look, perfect for bags intended for sale or for high-quality personal creations.
The rigid arch structure keeps the bag open and facilitates access to the contents, a functional detail that makes a difference in daily use. The surface treatment protects the metal from oxidation and ensures that the finish remains brilliant even after months of use. These handles are designed for those who do not want to compromise between aesthetics and functionality.
📦 Dimensions and format: the right size for every project
With a length of 16cm and a height of 11cm, these handles offer a comfortable grip and sufficient opening for medium-sized bags. They are perfect for crochet bags made with 400-500g yarn, fabric or faux leather pochettes, and evening clutches with a semi-rigid structure. The 0.5mm thickness makes them lightweight yet resistant, suitable for supporting the weight of a full bag without deforming.
The arch format is particularly suitable for bags with a wide top opening, where the handle becomes a decorative as well as functional element. The 2-piece set allows you to complete a bag with a single purchase, without having to look for individual handles or risk color variations between different batches.
🧶 Assembly and material compatibility
MAF handles are equipped with an attachment ring that allows for easy and quick assembly. The ring can be inserted directly into the bag fabric through sewn or crocheted eyelets, or it can be secured with reinforced stitches to ensure greater stability. This type of assembly is compatible with ribbon yarn, cord, fabric, faux leather, and any material that allows for creating a sturdy eyelet or attachment point.
For crochet bags, it is recommended to work the attachment eyelet with single or slip stitches to ensure strength. For fabric bags, it is preferable to reinforce the eyelet with double stitching or an internal reinforcement made of stiff canvas. The light weight of the handle (approximately 30-40g per piece) does not weigh down the bag and allows you to create accessories that are comfortable to carry even for long periods.
✨ Why choose MAF Metal Arch Handles
Compared to wood or bamboo handles, MAF metal handles offer a more modern and versatile design, suitable for both casual and elegant bags. Unlike resin handles, which can chip or lose color, metal maintains its finish over time and better resists impacts and wear. The arch shape is more ergonomic than round or rectangular handles because it distributes the weight of the bag evenly over the hand.
The real advantage of these handles is their recognizability: the original MAF design gives your creations a precise identity and a professional look that distinguishes them from bags with generic handles. If you sell your handmade creations, this detail makes a difference in the quality perception by the end customer.
🎨 What you can create
MAF metal arch handles are perfect for crochet bags with ribbon yarn, elegant fabric or faux leather pochettes, evening clutches with magnetic closures, everyday handbags, and handmade accessories intended for sale. The gold finish is ideal for summer projects or those with warm colors (beige, camel, terracotta), while the silver finish pairs perfectly with cool colors (gray, blue, black, white).
👩🎨 Who is this for
These handles are suitable for both beginners and experts. Mounting via the ring is simple and requires no special tools: just create a sturdy eyelet and insert the ring. For those who are new to crochet bags, these handles are an excellent choice because they immediately give a professional look to the project, even if the workmanship is not perfect.
They are particularly appreciated by those who sell handmade creations on Etsy, at markets, or through social media, because the recognizable MAF design adds perceived value to the finished product. Even those who create bags for personal use or as gifts will find in these handles a detail that makes the difference between a homemade bag and an accessory crafted with meticulous attention to detail.

📌 Important note
We recommend matching the handle finish (gold or silver) with the bag's other metal accessories, such as chains, magnetic clasps, rings, and carabiners, for a coordinated and professional result. Always check the strength of the attachment loop before use: for bags intended to carry heavy items, reinforce the loop with double stitching or an internal rigid insert. Finishes may show slight variations in shade between different batches: for projects requiring multiple pairs of handles, it is recommended to purchase the necessary quantity in a single order.
