Trust factors: As distributors for some of the world’s most renowned leather tanners, we are a leather wholesaler and leather supplier to many sectors.

Our comprehensive range of leather craft supplies and workshop materials is combined with the creation of bespoke solid brass items and custom made horse bits made to exact specifications, with each item hand-finished and individually checked for quality. This has helped us create a long lasting relationship with our customers and specialist stockists.

Our leather craft tools equip many leather workshops and leather suppliers, both nationally and internationally. We supply quality tools, necessary for them to carry out their creative work, offering a wide range of punches, knives, mallets, chisels, creases stitch groovers, awls and many more. We are renowned for our exceptional hardware, leathers and materials. We produce our metal work from one of the last foundries in the UK, which has been making quality brassware and buckles since 1832. This dedication to continuing the production of decorative and functional brassware, which looks beautiful on a leather surface, earned Abbey England a Royal Warrant for our service and supply of Abbey hardware to the Queen’s Royal Guard.
