Leather essentials for staying indoors

27th March 2020

If there’s ever an excuse to curl up on the sofa, work from home or even start a new hobby, this is it. Staying at home has given us something that rarely comes around: the opportunity to do the things we’ve never had the time to do.

With this in mind, we’ve compiled our top leather essentials to help you get the most out of these (sometimes difficult) times of social distancing indoors.

Available in a variety of sizes and two different colours, this stylish accessory has two handy pockets attached so your stationary is always kept close. Handmade by expert craftsmen in Spain, the case also ships worldwide so none of us can miss out.

FAVOURITE FOOTSTOOL: OMERSA DACHSHUND

All those worldwide dog lovers out there: this one is definitely for you. This super-cute handmade leather Dachshund footstool has been stuffed with shredded pine wood and is made using unfinished leather – this will allow it to age beautifully and develop its own unique scuff marks. It has also been hand stained, waxed and polished to give it a shiny finish.
