Handbag Metal Frame

The handbag metal frame is the defining centerpiece of structured bags — providing both functional closure and the silhouette that customers recognize from across a room. Over a decade of serving brands like Vivienne Westwood and Maxmara, our factory has refined the art of producing metal handbag frames that balance precise engineering with flawless visual finish. Each frame starts as a CAD-approved design, moves through zinc alloy or brass die-casting, undergoes multi-stage polishing to eliminate any micro-defects, and receives electroplated or spray-painted finishing — all under one roof with our in-house electroplating facility.
