Billy Tannery
In 2016, building on centuries of local leather knowledge Billy Tannery transformed a farm building in the Midlands into their own small-batch tannery – the first of its kind to be built in this country for well over 50 years. Today their collection of handmade leather goods puts their vegetable tanned goat and deer leather centre stage. At Billy Tannery, they produce leather as it should be. Tanned entirely in Britain from a previously wasted food by-product, using bark extracts and their innovative microtannery process that recycles 90% of the water and turns waste into compost.
Our Top Picks:
The Fauna – A beautifully balanced everyday handbag to wear crossbody or shoulder style. Designed in collaboration with British Pasture Leather, it combines deer suede and cattle leather that promote positive environmental and welfare practices.
The Zip Tote – The Zip Tote is their new leather tote handbag with added zip. After hundreds of requests for a compact version of The Gote with a closure, the wait is over.
