Introducing The Artisan

Introducing the bag that ages beautifully, yet never gets old. 

The Artisan has been available for a week now, but the process behind its creation took much, much longer than that! We have been itching to share this stunning bag with you all, and we’re just thrilled that it’s finally here. 

Made from soft, velvety bridle leather, The Artisan sits in our luxury Cambridge Collection, both due to its material and the hours that go into its craft. Bridle leather is known for its beauty, strength and the unique patina it acquires over time, but it is also known for the expert craftsmanship required to work with it. It must be meticulously hand finished using traditional techniques. 

Artisan is a word that holds so much meaning: it signifies a skilled worker in a particular trade (just like our craftsmen and women), but it also represents generations of people who have passed an almost lost art down through generations. The Artisan is a preservation of memories and skills, and such a piece deserved two new premium colours.

Burgundy

Deep as the rich purple-red of a vineyard grape, this beautiful tone in a soft bridle leather is reminiscent of the velvety feel of a quality red wine. A luxury hue that you’ll adore for years to come.

Ochre

@incaseofbrit wears The Artisan in Ochre.

A pigment used by artists from prehistory through time. Still used today, its longevity attests to its beauty! In a soft bridle leather, this sandy yet vibrant yellow will add a powerful depth and elegance to your look. 

Featuring subtle artisanal details such as its branded hardware, its elegantly stitched v-shaped top handle and its discreet interior slip pocket, this bag makes for an excellent unisex addition to our collections.

The way that The Artisan ages makes it unique to its wearer. It holds stories, adventures and milestones both on its surface and its interior, becoming an heirloom to pass on one day. 

You can’t make Artisan without ‘art’ - and we certainly think of it as a masterpiece. Discover The Artisan here.
