About Us

Welcome to Gilded Twin — where luxury lives on.

Founded by sibling duo Caitlin and Tanner Balk, Gilded Twin is more than just a resale destination — it’s a reflection of our shared passion for timeless design, craftsmanship, and the magic of giving luxury items a second life. Based in the heart of the western Twin Cities, we’re proud to curate an exclusive collection that celebrates quality, authenticity, and sustainability.

Our name is a nod to both our roots and our vision. “Gilded” embodies the carefully selected, high-quality pieces we stand behind, while “Twin” celebrates both our bond as siblings and our deep connection to our vibrant local community.

While we specialize in designer bags — from classic to contemporary — we’re always ready to help our customers find that perfect item, whether it’s a statement handbag, a pair of iconic shoes, or any luxury piece that captures their imagination. With our authenticity guarantee, every purchase is one you can trust.

Since April 2025, Gilded Twin has proudly served as a destination where luxurious minds in the Twin Cities (and beyond) can rediscover the thrill of exceptional finds. Join us, and see where luxury lives on.
