The London Leather Workshop is our parallel project through which we provide a vast range of services for businesses, designers, students, professionals and enthusiasts in the fashion accessories and leathercraft industries.

With 20 years of experience in the field, we work with individuals, start-ups and established brands offering all-encompassing assistance from design and product development to manufacturing of handbags, accessories and leathergoods. 

We also advise on material sourcing and provide professional training in bag making, sewing and general leathercrafts.

All our services are carried out privately and confidentially and can be organised through face-to-face meetings or remotely through phone/video calls and digital material sharing.

We assist our clients with sampling fashion accessories and pet accessories.  We also can sample selected garments and soft furnishings.

We have experience with clients in the luxury market and medium and low-end brands. Regardless of the project budget, we always help our clients create a product aligned with their targets and market placement.

Accessories and handbag sampling is an essential step that precedes the manufacturing of a design, but if you are only interested in this service, and you are not ready for manufacturing or wish to manufacture elsewhere, don’t worry; there is no obligation.

Once the sample has been revised and approved, we can carry out small and medium production runs in our studio in South East London.

We only require five pieces minimum order for our accessory and leathergoods manufacturing service and the maximum unit number that we can produce per month depends on the size and complexity of the item and the production method.

Regardless of the order size, we always dedicate the same attention to detail to our work and strive to hit our clients’ targets and deadlines.

Choosing a suitable material is a vital step for the success of your project.
Materials don’t only define the aesthetic and performance of an item but also its manufacturing techniques and, consequentially, its manufacturing price.
This process involves considerable work and technical knowledge and can be an overwhelming task for new designers.
We can help our clients find the best materials for their projects thanks to our extensive network of trusted leather, vegan leather, fabric and hardware suppliers, saving them from headaches or expensive mistakes.

Our leather stock is handpicked by us during our travels to Italy and comes from brands’ end of production surplus and also from the end of season leftovers of selected tanneries in Italy and UK. 

Besides whole skins and hides, we also have a stock of offcuts and bundles at very competitive price.

The leather we stock vary from 0.4mm to 2.8mm in thicknesses and comes in many different finishings. Due to the sourcing method, our stock is limited and changes regurarly.
