Classic English Craftsmanship from
Rutherfords England
A real English leather goods maker working in a beautiful workshop on the Cholmondeley Castle estate in Cheshire, England. With most of their designs and craftsmanship basing on the traditional ways of bridle making, it is safe to say a Rutherfords bag or briefcase is a signature item of the finest British quality.
The valuable English bridle leather provides you with some best wearing leathers available. Originally developed to make bridles for equestrian sports it is expected to withstand continual stress while being smooth on the coat of the horse. Using leather of this quality enables them to create the most luxurious English bags & briefcases.
You will notice this leather from its waxy surface when young at age. It is during the tanning an especially large amount of wax is rubbed by hand into the leather. This leads to the typical smoothness and shine of bridle leather and over time it will develop a unique patina giving each item its own character, displaying history as it has occurred.
As every Rutherfords item is made to order, they may offer countless bespoke options. Also securing an utmost attention from the craftsman to what is being made. Each and every bag contains multiple elements of hand-stitching and all edges are meticulously hand-burnished.
All their outstanding work allows you to enjoy their heritage pieces for decades to come.
Estimated production time is 4-6 weeks.
