Couple unites industrial scraps with fashion in Chemical Wedding handbag line

Jon and Tracy Holland marry post industrial scraps and imaginative design to create one-of-a-kind handbags. The artistic local couple aims to create wearable art, and they've done it, just as the name Chemical Wedding suggests. Jon Holland explains that the line Chemical Wedding is based on the alchemist theory of transmutation of form. "Like lead into gold, we use and rearrange manufacturer's castoffs and turn them into handbags."
