I love collecting old postmen’s photos and get even more excited if they have a satchel on their shoulder.Here is a small collection of them. The oldest photo dates from the 1870’s

Here is our modern take on the traditional postman’s satchel

I shall leave you with this song:

We love 60s and 70s floral fabric and it looks gorgeous against our rich caramel leather so at the moment we are
putting down some ideas for lining a new hippie/bohemian saddle bag collection…..

Time Shift-The golden age of coach travel is a documentary well worth watching on bbc iplayer about 1950s England coach travel .

We have designed a 50s inspired satchel you can view more photos of it here

If you have an old battered trunk you can easily transform it into a thing of beauty
using little more than a selection of modern fabrics.

60s and 70s dress fashion is cool.

Embossing seems to be the thing of the moment.Everybody wants a bag with their initials on it.

Hopefully we will be offering that in the near future.
The pictured bag is a tooled handpainted vintage one.
