About Spartina 449

Learn about the brand

WELCOME! If you're like us, you prefer style over fashion. You're just as comfortable in heels as you are barefoot on the beach. And if you're looking for laid-back lux or casual elegance, you've found it in Spartina 449. We are recognized for our upscale, designer handbags, apparel and accessories, but it's the rich history, people and coastal beauty of Daufuskie Island that we most admire. Take a look around South Carolina's breezy Lowcountry, and you'll see why we can't help but be inspired.

That thought became a beautifully coordinated handbag collection beloved by women everywhere. Oh, how that idea grew. Spartina 449 is now internationally known and featured in specialty retail shops across the country. We also offer an evolving array of products that continue to be inspired by the small, flavorful island we call home. What's in a Name? The company name originates from the lush, green cordgrass that flourishes in the saltwater marshes along the Carolina coast. Its Latin name? Spartina alterniflora. And the number 449?

Carry a Spartina 449 bag, and you're carrying history on your arm. Our pattern names are each inspired by the Lowcountry's history. Travel! Romance! Mystery! You'll discover fascinating tales woven into every pattern. The Spartina Mermaid Captivating colors, irresistible style—it was only natural that a mermaid became our insignia! The Spartina 449 mermaid is inspired by tales of sailors who, after a night of indulging in island spirits, gaz
