The Westminster Collection are classic lid-over-body attaché cases, handcrafted in the finest English bridle Hide.  These extraordinary cases are a wonderful value.  The construction is remarkable, the leather is superb.  The files offer wonderful leather detail generally found only with cases in a much higher price range.

Created around a steel frame in both the lid and body, using traditional manufacturing techniques dating back to the 19th century when this design was first originated.

Lined in green skiver leather and complemented with solid brass fittings and hand-made key locks.

Measuring approximately 18 by 13 by 3 inches, also available in a 4 and 5 inch version as mentioned below.

The case standing on end is produced in Tan Bridle Hide.  Our open case is shown in Chestnut.  Just below that is Havana and then Black.  Tan is the traditional Dark London Tan most think of with British Bridle Hide.  It is a dark beige tan with an orange hue.  Chestnut is more of a light brown with burgundy hues.  Havana, actually, looks more like the bottom case in this photograph.  Havana is a dark, dark chocolate brown.  Black, is simply, Black.

Are you familiar with Bridle Hide?  If not, it is the most incredible leather; ...you cannot help but love the look.  The patina that develops is like no other.  This leather becomes dramatically more beautiful over time.  It is a natural feeding hide.  There is a wax in this leather that will rise to the surface that may be rubbed back into the leather.  We will, of course, dispatch your case with our favourite polish to keep it looking lovely forever.

If you are considering this case, you may wish to look at the Swaine Adeney Brigg and Papworth versions as well.
