Spotlight on Leather

Spotlight on....Leather

Designer makers like Wolfram Lohr don't come along everyday. Their stylish and impeccably made leather accessories for men and women are classic in style, yet modern and functional at the same time.

This family run business from Hove is just one of the exciting Leather makers set to exhibit at this year's Contemporary Craft Festival. Come and see them and make sure you get your hands on one of their stunning pieces.
